I have had my Cup 4 weeks now and already some t**t has scratched the side. The scratch is about as wide as a pin head and about a foot and half long, its quite deep as its gone through to the undercoat. I took it to my local body shop today and he said it looks like im gona have to have the whole panel resprayed. I really dont wana have to have it resprayed.

Has anyone had a similar type scratch just touched up before?

If i get the panel resprayed will it void my paint warrenty?

Do you think its best to get Renault to do the work? (gona be pricey though!)

Please help!

Just had my Golf done after an identical scratch to yours. It needed respraying and quite franckly I cant tell that its been done other than a smell of cellulose inside at the moment. Seeing as youve got a nice new Cup it probably is worth having it done proffesionally. Mine was £150 and he had it for 2 days, worse thing was the Metro City courtesey car
