Who's definition of 'expert'.....yours or his? The prep work is just as important as the actual painting....... If you're gonna do this deal, I would suggest that it's from a painter/shop of your choosing. No paint job is as good as the factory one, but you most certainly want the one that is a real close 2nd.....

If the car is silverstone and the person is only painting part of the car make sure the paint matches the rest of the car. There are a few threads on here where people had a difficult time matching paint to the existing Silverstone. Apparently different years had different shades (something about the amount of metal flake in the paint varied in different years).

I went to see it today with a friend and I will now just get the front bumper repainted. he suggested that I keep the original paint and that I should just get the front bumper because it's the only section that really needs to be painted, the rest of the car has some rock chips but he said that I'll get that on the new paint anyways.

So the price of the car will drop 1000$ with only bumper repainted

Honda dealership tested it today and the guy said it was in excellent condition
just needs new front tires and something wrong with one of the windshield washer "shooters" whatever you call it.

I'll with probably get it on Monday and post pics, can't wait
