I would have reservations about a DIY repaint. The peeling suggests
that something is wrong with the existing paint or surface preparation.
A top-notch body shop should know how to do this right.
After a tire monkey attacked my wife's E34 rocker panel with a floor
jack, my body shop repaired and repainted it, and it still looks great
several years later. (If interested in the name of the Oakland,
California shop, email me.)
