A steaming pile of human excrement left a nice key scratch on my trunk lid that pretty much goes coast to coast from left to right. If I take it to a body shop, is it standard industry practice to insist they strip and repaint the whole thing? I would rather have someone touch up the scratch rather than repaint the whole thing, and of course I would be willing to accept that that wouldn't be as good as totally redoing it. I wouldn't have a problem paying to have it redone, but in this day and age of antisocial behavior I don't think it's reasonable to think it won't happen again.
