Front end respray - Worth it or not?

[MikeGF]

After my wedding this Saturday and the following Honeymoon, and with the extra money that will now be lining my pocket, I want to pay some attention to the Chim.

I have started on the Leven upgrades which will continue. It is a P reg 4L, and as such is suffering heavily from the dreaded stone chipping. I know it is a common problem, and would like to get the front end re sprayed, but is it a waste? As I know that once I drive it it will be chipped again??

I would like to do it to bring it back up to nearly new standard, and would be interested to hear anyones views...

It's Cooper Green.

Cheers
MikeGF

Shurely shome mhistake ... ?

Cooper Green's a good colour though (and Mike too).

If mine needed a front respray, I'd get it done as it improves the look of the car no end what with TVR's light colour primer being seen under the paint chips ...

Thanks MikeyT, Green is a good colour. When I picked it up from Fernies the stonechips wherre filled using a little paint pot, but the new ones are now there and the front of the car looks like it has grey measles!!

If its bothering you then get it done.

The feelgood factor will be worth it alone.

Just had my full car done, well worth it driving around in an unmarked car with that Factory fresh feel...

I'd have thought you were used to driving unmarked cars Tony?
