I can see the dent repair made an improvement, that was the easy part IMHO

the challenge now becomes it appears there’s still a crease and the paint chips to contend with and making them go away

if you’re OCD, you’re not going to be happy with touch up as trying to get the color to match is near impossible

the best thing now is to paint and a great shop will be able to match the color, repair the affected area, spot some color in the door and 1/4, and clear them both for a beautiful and lasting repair

IF you don’t want to paint the whole 1/4 and door, a spot repair can be done in general area as a bandaid and just see how it holds up over the years

But that crease will be tough to make disappear with a proper refinishing

+1 what Stan said. Dr CC is great and I use it all the time for paint chips, but doing a larger repair like that, it really isn’t designed for it. Their paint match is great, as is the process that they employ - it really does work. Considering the very low cost, try it and see if you like the result. You could use their paint and touch up in layers, with a wet sand in between, but that could be tricky. No matter, if you aren’t satisfied with your result, then you can let the pros do their thing, and no harm no foul.

Once again I suggest don't repaint a panel on an original paint 928 that has otherwise excellent condition paint,
nothing will come close to the factory paint and it wont match,
and whomever does this will ruin the rest of the paint that they are sanding down,
and possibly ruin the factory applied metal corrosion package.

NOTE this instruction doesn't apply to a car that is getting a full respray and being sanded down to metal.
In that case use the best metal prep, epoxy primers and paints and clears.

Right now you have few hours of carefully applied touchup needing to be applied,
then let it cure for a week then then wet sanded with 2000 grit ,
buff it out.

Most important , go drive the car,
enjoy it for being almost 40 years old,
and dont worry about your dashboard cracks either.

A machine with original patina is more desirable than a machine thats been reworked to death,
in an attempt to restore an original condition.

Thank you Stan, Ed and Moe!

The crease is definitely gone, I think what you can see in the pic is the paint rubbed where the crease was, it should rub out, we'll see. Luckily the chips are low on the car, I can tend to be OCD so it may bother me but nothing like it did.
Stan, only 2 cracks in the dash both between the vent holes on passenger side, very tough to see but yes they're there and they do bother me a bit LoL. I'm extremely lucky to have this well preserved 56k mile car, interior is immaculate and it's a weird thing to say but the leather has a very nice unique smell to it!

Thanks guys I'll update as the repair progresses.

That is impressive. I did not expect it to turn out as well as it did.

As was I Kevin!

I have seen it happen,

My local Sherwin Williams automotive paint reseller was able to shoot the color to match my aero mirrors. Colors change over time.

Looks fantastic and you saved yourself messing with the sheet metal. This is the way to go.

I strongly suggest you find a really good detail shop now. You can polish the area well, then have them capture the color with one of those fritzy machines and the they can mask and slowly build and polish down to perfection. If done right, you will not be able to tell. I have has this done this with many of my cars many times successfully.
