minor paint scratches

[kuttycrew]

I have a 2009 black pearl finish Genesis, it was keyed in a parking lot. a body shop wants to paint a whole quarter panel for a 4 inch scrape (no body damage) $800. how do dealers treat trade ins, i'm sure they don't paint a whole car to take care of minor scatches. do I need a key word so the auto body shop can give me the dealer treatment?

The scratch will have to be sanded, primed, sanded again then first and second stage of the paint layed down, then the whole panel should be clear coated. I'm not sure there is another way to do it and it not show on a black car. This is another reason that I have only owned one black car in my life.
