We need pics to do a virtual estimate….need to know the color ..is it base coat coat / clearcoat..or a 3 stage paint . If it’s black ,that’s better for a color match. If it’s any thing else …it needs to be blended into the adjacent panels, unless it’s an old clam. Any door ding will add to the bottom line.

It’s a truck. Drive it unless you’re concerned about rust.

Vehicles are costly enough. The dings and dents are why you got it so cheap! Drive it like a rental.

It’s a truck. Drive it unless you’re concerned about rust. Aside from what it looks like nice and clean with sunlight on it, yes i am slightly concerned about rust. Its bright red, and the rock chips expose white-idk if thats primer or what. If i keep a coat of wax on it twice a year id imagine thatd help. It kind of seems like the layer of red is thinner than it should be if that makes sense. I know its a truck and im not afraid to drive it, just seems excessive.
