We have a ‘09 Accord (78K miles) that is in good mechanical shape but because ten years of its age was in Arizona the paint is horribly faded and cracking. I am thinking about getting a really good paint job and driving it another 75k miles.

I am afraid of agreeing to a $3500 paint job and it not being satisfactory. Anyone gotten a total repaint lately?

One more thing....... in addition for the new paint job, spring for new headlights. The new polished head lights make all the difference in the appearance world.

Our ‘98, that is 1998, Civic has been very well maintained and with a new paint job in the original color with new headlights makes the age unrecognizable.

I worried about the milage. My Honda specialist mechanic told me not to worry because it was in some ways better than some newer models.
