did u buy the car brand new? are u sure it didnt meet any accident? get a second opinion of some other painter/denter aswell. sometimes dealers chat real sh*t to pay lesss price for the car and make more profit on it. if it really is then getting the same thing in the same colour will be a mission.also if that patti is painted then bonnet must be damaged aswee if it were an accident. if not then just a spray to remove scratches etc wont effect the price i.e if it aint accidented, there are other ways to check whether the car met an accident
