You won't have to necessarily repaint your entire car. There are some other options open for you. There is a new type of touch-up paint out that bonds with the molecules in the rust and in the metal, thus stopping the rust from going any furthur. The other option is to just sand it, prime it, and paint it yourself. It's not as difficult as one would think. Plus with the warmer weather on the way it will have a better chance of curing.

A good prevention tip: go to a local shop that does tinting, they have this new thing from 3M or another company called Invisibra, or something to that effect. It's basically a clear piece of thin plastic that goes over the front of your car. There are no lines, it's invisible, and it protects the front of your car. Also, since you live on a dirt road, you may want to get some large, flat, magnet strips and place them on the body of the car behind the wheel wells. This will help prevent chipping from rocks kicked up by your own tires.

 

the OZ body kit is different from the rest of the car frame. The OZ kit is constructed of plastic, and if you paint fades they take care of it... wont cover rock chips or road damage to the car from (gravel, salt, sand, etc.) i know, i live in CO and the front end of my car has all kinds of chips. If it really bothers you that much get those spots repainted and invest in a 3M clear bra.

 

umm why did mine come with a 3 year paint warranty ?
