These things just have a way of turning into a pus case. I went through this when my ex-GF keyed my car. Long story I have posted before but the body shop said "no way" to repairing and repainting the hood, trunk lid and entire driver's side that she mangled. The car had original paint, primer, an original color re-spray, primer, Imron color change re-spray, primer and a clearcoat/base coat re-spray (mine) on it. I had no idea there was that much paint on the car. The Imron was like powder coat and would not feather edge so all the paint had to come off.

The ex took responsibility only for the panels she damaged but changed her mind when faced with a Felony Property Damage charge vs. stripping and repainting the entire car.

You never know what the body shop will find when the paint is stripped.
