Hello fellow 86ers!
Long-time lurker here.
While my car was parked over the weekend, a white prius backed into the rear quarter panel and dented it. Just a few days after I waxed it too!
I cleaned up the area with some quick detailer and a microfiber cloth, which revealed that the original paint (on the panel) is still in tact with a couple small clearcoat scratches.
I already spoke with insurance, and am giving the car to my dealerships body-shop to do the repairs next week.
I was wondering if it is possible to have this fixed without destroying and repainting over the original paint?
I assume nothing will be as good as the original factory paint, and bondo+repaint will always be asking for trouble in the future. But since this is so close to the edge of the panel, I don't know if PDR would be an option. Thoughts?
