His idea of protecting it from rock chips is not driving it...ever.

I guess I have to accept a certain degree of "chippage" - i drive the car about 18k - 20k a year so it comes with the territory - but hey, at least i know the painter!

its not so much the paint but the TIME it took - it was me and one of the guys at the shop working a combined total of close to 35 hours to do the whole thing... so you could imagine it being a bit more than an average repaint - if you're really interested i could send you a quote.

Yeah, something like that you'd have to be super meticulous I would imagine. It's good know there's a decent place nearby for painting.
