Did you have the whole front end done ? bumper off ? I need to get mine done soon , the stone chips are getting quite bad.

Yep, everything apart (bumper off, lights out, wing mirrors off etc) whole front end and blended into the doors.
The paintwork on my car was actually in good condition, but unfortunately it was not a very good match at all and a good half a shade darker. Front end had obviously been re painted at some point in the past, but they had not blended into the doors so at certain angles you could see a distinct difference between the front wings and leading edge of the doors. Bugged the **** out of me!!!
Argento Luna isn't the easiest colour to match it seems, so the body shop spent quite a while experimenting to get the match spot on. Happy now, but not the cheapest job to get done properly.
Here is a great pic of my car taken by the previous owner. You can see the colour difference between the front wing and door.........maybe I'm being too fussy but I had to get it put right!
