Re-painting a Fit
Hi -
I'll be purchasing a second-hand Fit soon. I've looked at a couple and one thing stands out: they both have tons of chipped paint with bare metal showing. Yikes! A search of this forum indicates that soft paint is indeed a problem with the Fits, and Hondas in general.
Would need to repaint hood and roof (I was quoted 600 - 800) on both those Fits. Any issues repainting? Will the new paint be better than the old paint?
Thanks!

that's a question for your bodyshop to answer. also check out vinyl wrapping your roof. you will need to smooth out all the chips first, but it might be cheaper.
