The sides of the car were a slighty different shade to the rest of the car so I had to get the rest done. Ive worked a few weekends to pay for it.

Your on a slippery slope; now the glass,wheels, rubber seal etc,etc will not look good enough for your fresh paint.
I'm glad you've found someone trustworthy to do the work.

Happy Days
