$4K? who is doing the work? prison labor? LOL That's a no brainer. Proper care and waxing and the paint ought to be good for another 20 years.
Some colors like silver well you really don't want to trust with just any shop, otherwise you better off repainting the whole car.

By the way, I took my car to the best shop in the area for a quote. They do work for the most well know high end Porsche/Aston Martin/MB dealer in the state. When I arrived there was a powder blue Lambo about to be sprayed and a Aston Martin DB9 with what I can only describe as James Bond Quantum of Solace type damage. They quoted me $6K for the hood, front bumper and one fender.
That was a top notch operation though, the cars are prep'd in one facility and then driven to another site for the actual paint and drying.
