Does spraying your whole car (either change car original colour or maintain original colour) makes your car second hand value drop eventhough your car is accident free?

Thanks for all the feedback..I'm actually surprise spraying your car again will undervalue its second hand value...
U noe lah..these days travel highway so many stones hit the front part of the car..even my roof also kena the small stones..so got some chip marks..that's the reason why I'm thinking of spraying my whole car again..my car is only 5 years old..do you think its wise to spray back the original colour or to just spray the affected parts which is dented? |

If u spray the dented part will cost u much too... better spray back to ori colour outside layer only... Just pay a little bit more...U noe lah..these days travel highway so many stones hit the front part of the car..even my roof also kena the small stones..so got some chip marks..that's the reason why I'm thinking of spraying my whole car again..my car is only 5 years old..do you think its wise to spray back the original colour or to just spray the affected parts which is dented? |

this is interesting
well if you do things below sure decrease the value when selling 1)spray funny color, 2)bad paint job 3)from metallic to solid color 4)respray unpopular color e.g. red, white, brown different scenario ho.. example a silver perdana v6 respray to black color, you might get better price.. |

I don't think it will lower the car value after you respray it. But I got a problem to share with you all.. Recently I sell off my Iswara for RM7k. As I told him earlier, when I bought this car it had no any accessories include radio player and also speaker. All the stuff is I Install it by my own. After he get my car, he wanna minus RM1k for it. Because no Radio player and Speaker. Huh.. What teori is this? I so fed up with him and now it still not yet settle. Got such thing to happen? Any solution? Somemore that day he saw the car condition is with Cd player with Woofer and I had told him earlier that I not giving those item. And now, He was saying, No cd player, No speaker minus RM1k. What should I do?

Well...for me if the car is sprayed with Glasurit paint, the overall value of the car can be maintained coz the paint is VERY expensive and the quality is very good

I think spraying just the front bonnet and bumper (front and rear) will not affect the second hand car value that much...
