Auto body repair & detailing: car body damage, honda s2000, invisible repair


Question
Hello, i have a Honda s2000, and i have a dent in the rear right quarter panel near the rear tail light. my question is do i need to do a color match with the bumper and the door, the color of the car is metallic gray. if i just fix the quarter panel, will i see a color difference with the bumper and door?

Answer
Yes, if you just paint the quarter, you will see a color difference. When the color comes near any ajacient panels, you will need to do a color blend into the other panels for an invisible repair. High metallic colors like grey are especially prone to color mis-match. Bill
