After having my G35 Coupe for one month, I finally had to take it on the freeway. While still being cautious driving, all of a sudden a 1 foot log shot out from a car infront of me and landed right in the midlle of my hood causing a small dent and some small scratches down to the metal.

I spoke to my Infiniti dealer and they referred me to an auto body repair who wants to fix the small dent, then repain the hood and then also blend the paint on the side fenders by the wheel wells.

Is this recommended or can I get by with just painting the hood? Auto body guy says it needs to blend with the parts next to it. Price quoted $625. Does this sound right?
