To respray a 996tt (or not to respray)? That is the question

[911tt]

My 996tt has good to very good paintwork for the year with the usual stone-chips on the frontal areas plus many abnormal (if small to very small) stone-chips in many other places due to meeting a gritting lorry coming the other way with nowhere for me to hide, a year ago. These blemishes, although only visible close up, and mostly only to me, bug me quite a lot as the car is generally excellent. Due to very low rectification expenses over the past few years my budget will stand a respray - even one of those arm and leg resprays that leaves the car in factory door condition with no traces of it having been done (I am reliably told by people who've used the company I'm thinking of).

Opinion is divided: a couple of fellow owners think it should be left as original as possible and others say go for it (and get it wrapped afterwards).

Originality or perfection?
