Default Anyone know a good place for paint chip and scratch repair near Redondo Beach, CA?

Looks like some A.H. keyed my hood this weekend. I see about 5 small scratches in the clear coat (each about 1/2 inch long) and one made it through the paint (about 1/8 inch). Is there any hope of getting it looking OK, or do I have to repaint the hood.

Please let me know if there is a good place in the South Bay area (Torrance, Redondo Beach, etc.)

You may also want to post this in the Southern California forum. Might get more responses there.

Good Idea. I just did that. I'm a newbe and didn't even realize there was a separate local forum.

Cool. Also, the So Cal forums has lots of information posted for local events if you are into that as well.

I had a fender bender last spring with my 07. I took it to a place called Estorga's over on 190th street Torrance. They ended up painting the right fender and bumper cover, and you cannot tell the difference, even with silver. I would highly recommend these guys.

Thanks. I just called them and they only do full panel painting (no spot touch up). I may try them if the touch up doesn't yield good results.
