car depreciation after a collision

Carfax is good and bad. Are you buying or selling? If you claim your gonna take a hit on your insurance and trade in values. Who cares if your insurance gives diminishing value. You pay the same in the long run anyway. If you can fix a car out of pocket then its obviously a small mishap thats not worth worry about. Or a plus because the next owner has a better paint job. (As long as you dont salvage a total lost car and take advantage of the buyer).
