There is no cheap way.

Sure there is, just don't fix it. Doesn't cost a dime. :) Seriously though some elbow grease with some high grit sand paper and a quick trip to macco is probably the cheapest route out.

That's what I was afraid of. Looks like I'm going to have to pretend it's fine until I get the money to get the whole car repainted.

A silver with cancer. Interesting.

I thought black and silver were the most likely to get cancer? I thought I read that in a thread here, somewhere.

But yeah, the car's original owner lived in Phoenix, AZ. It was fine until I got it to Nebraska, which seems odd.

Around here its always the black and dark green.

Do what I did: learn to paint it yourself

That's what I was planning on doing if I needed to just touch it up. I don't have enough room to paint the whole thing.

I have a silver galant also, had silver paint and had the cancer, tried to talk to Mitsubishi but they will only pay for kalapana black which is BS... I had it painted for $1k at Maaco, the paint job right below "factory" level.

I say wait and fix it right, maybe get that car color you've always wanted.

for now just get some high grit sand paper and some rubbing compound to make it looks semi decent. its really not that bad if your planning on painting in the future, but can be a PITA if you wanted to keep stock paint
