Well, I'm taking my car down to maaco tomorrow to see what they can do for me. If they can get me a paint job with the "additonal sanding" I need to get out the scratches, nail polish (from previous owner), oxidation, etc. for under $500 then I'm going to have them do it. After almost 4 years I might finally be getting the paint job I always said I was going to get. lol. This is, unfortunately, only so I can sell the car faster since nobody wants to pay a reasonable price for a car that's in perfect condition mechanically, near perfect on the interior, but 4 different colors on the exterior.
 pics and update tomorrow

well it's not sold yet!
 I got it back today, and besides some expected imperfections it actually looks REALLY good. Very glossy which I wasn't expecting from the single stage paint. Pics and more info to come tomorrow
