no just the areas you are working on, although if you plan on repaint the whole car you will. and i'd seek pro. help maybe take it to a shop and talk to someone, or you may end up a three gallon bondoed p.o.s. body work is not a DIY task espeasily if you don't know what you are doing, and have the right tools. Such as a welder.

i was @ shop while they shaved my doors and trunk..

believe me, you dont want to do it.. its a pain in the HOLE ***.

when they soldered the doors all the doors got bended because of heat, trunk also, and getting the body line that goes throught the handle is really time consuming and needs eagle eye to look for corruption on the line..

not really a DIY job unless you have been doin painting and body work for a long time..

oh no... i'm not doing it myself... i'm just wondering cause if they do have to sand the whole car down and repaint it... i mind as well change the color... i'm not gonna do this anytime soon... i just wanna know how they gonna do it... well i know if i'm doing the doors and trunk then they'll just sand the doors and trunk down... but i'm also doing the roof gutters...

Jaykuai: how much did it cost you? and are you happy with it?
