That said, sure the paint chips easy, so do other cars. I'll repaint my car when it gets bad enough, and call it a day. Will it hurt the value of the car if it's repainted - sure...but IMO, a chipped up car will be more value-hurt. Even then, I don't intend to sell this car anytime soon... |
Agree with above. Anyone complaining about paint chips on the front of the car does so for two reasons:
1) Never had a low, sloping front-end car before, or
2) Tailgates cars in front of him.
