depending on how dull it is it is possible to buff it out, it is surprising what you can do with faded paint and save thousands on a paint job. just don't go overboard with the buffer and take the paint down to the primer like i did in a few spots...

once you have the car back together you can bring it by the shop and i can tell you if the paint is salvageable or not and if you want to leave the car with me for a few days i can do what i can with the paint.
