Title: Original paint and value of car
Post by: thePoster on January 05, 2016, 11:07:23 AM

I'm probably going to keep my teggie and s2k foreve

I've contemplated repainting them because I always hear that original paint makes a car worth more.  But the thing is....  Paint chips!  Yesterday I was paint touching up a few slots and noticed I have a way more chips than when I bought it.   Then paint in the car is still nice but its got chips everywhere thanks to these bad roads here.  I was thinking the only way a car can not have any chips or scratches is if the car is never driven.  But then you can't enjoy it!  So I guess later on when I do decide to hang up these two cars I will just repaint them with original color.   

I wish these s2ks came with mudflaps or companies made mud goals for them.  Those guards help out a lot on my teggie. 

Oh sells!

Yep, makes no sense.

Plus, some cars appreciate in value with a nice custom paint job...
