Body and paint work has gotten damned expensive and replacing the roof of the car probably isn't worth what it would cost.
We have a 2009 Honda Pilot with a lot of sun damage to the upper surfaces of hood and roof. We had the car in for a minor fender repair at a well regarded local body shop last year and I ask the estimator how much to paint the whole car; 5k-7k was the answer.
Needless to say we declined.
