Message	...and got a quote on pulling out a few small dents, some hail dimpling, prep/paint/install a TT spoiler, repaint black trim, and finally, a one-step Urethane repaint of the entire car in Cobalt Green Pearl - $820 No, I don't expect that it will be perfect - no, I don't expect it'll last 10 years. But c'mon... my '94 NA 2+2 is 16 years old and after this, it'll look a HELL of a lot better than it does NOW... and if you only HAVE $1000 to spend on cosmetics in the first place, what else can you do? Have donned asbestos underwear - fire when ready...
