sand it and mask it yourself and then take it to a real body shop, it will save you a whole lot of money and you will have a good paint job. maybe ~$1000

I DO NOT want to re-paint the car. All i want to do is take the current paint straight down to the metal so i can keep it primer black. So how do i deal with the plastic parts on my car ? Just straight sand the paint of those parts with 320grit?
