I made them respray the the panel because I wanted it to be good as new. It was a 350 dollar booboo. Anywho, I never intend on selling the car, but would something like that be in car fax? No insurance was claimed.

Probably not, ussually stuff from insurance or police reports show up. Alot of accidents never show up on carfax. But I also heard it is possible for incidents that never happened or incorrect mileage to accidentally show up on carfax because it is just manually entered by people. I purchased my car, even though it had an accident with a deer reported on carfax. I got it checked out by the head mechanic at my local Porsche dealership and they couldn't find any structural damage or problems and the bodywork was phenominal.
