yeah but it just sucks, it wont have a factory paint job anymore. I dont know about in 2007, but i do know about 5-10 years ago there was no aftermarket paintjob that could stand up to a factory paintjob without an exuberant amount of clearcoating....

not true, it will look the same, i hit my hood and front bumper, and painted eyelids on my car and the color matched perfectly, and this was me doing it for free, and got my paint from my uncle which he works at a ford dealership and they made the paint, yeah ford made my paint but its the same

Im not worried about it looking the same, because the color should be an exact match. Im talking about in 6 or 7 years after sitting in the alabma sun if itll look different than the rest of the car....

if u take care of it, as in waxing and washing it all evenly it should be the same, oo may i add on the new paint dont use wax that contains silicone, use a polish, the clear coat needs to breathe, and im not kidding the clear cant be blocked by the silicone, wait like a couple of months to use wax, i waited till now to use wax on my car since all i was using was this special polish my uncle had
