Start looking for a grey one instead and they'll suddenly all be red!

Why so severe??? Why not just wet sand if it's stone chips your trying to rid of?

Or was there dents that your photos don't show?

Car was ruined at the front end with stone chips, so I would have to respray the front end. I'm getting the front arches rolled for piece of mind that I won't rub with the low offset and being lowered on coilovers now, the doors had a few dings , the rear quarters had rubbed through the paint from when I first fitted the wheels with 235 tyres (never again lol) the roof I wanted the aerial smoothed off the rear bumper is getting replaced with a us spec one and it would be a bit silly to not spray the boot hatch when all the rest is getting done
