Since I'm such a great brother....
 
My little sister is currently a pre med student. While she was at school this past year someone keyed the drivers side and less then a week later was in a hit and run in the mall parking lot that scraped the pass side and dented/scraped the door.

Since she didn’t want to pay the insurance deductible as the car was no where near perfect to begin with. I told her to buy touchup paint and gave her instructions to apply it and then I would fix it when she got home from school.

Well here are the results the small pen matched alright but the little jar used on the pass side matched like crap so they are still noticeable if you are closer then 2 feet other then that and the dent on the pass door I think it came out pretty well.

anyway here are some pics...

Damn :shock: , I've heard body shops say you can't repair a rough touch up paint job like that. They always wanna paint the whole panel. I'm freakin impressed. :nod:
