If it doesnt cover all the old paint it will, and they will wonder why it was painted thinking it may have been damaged and they will take $$$ off. I know they will measure the paint to see if its been painted too.
I had my Audi TT repainted the same color but just added some ice particles to make it sparkle in the sun and when I went to trade it in they asked about it, measured the paint and thought it had been damaged but not reported and wanted to low ball me on the trade in. So I left.
And guess who it was that was trying to low ball me? NISS
