to paint or not to paint

**shimmy** · 01-11-2015, 05:20 PM

my CSL is now 105k miles ish, and is in need of a paint job to be honest. front end is stone chipped from follwing too close behind ONeill, just before going past him, and rear arches are stone chipped from sprints on airfields.

i now do maybe 3-5000 miles a year max probably less, just 2 trackdays which will probably reduce every year.

now if i get it painted this winter what are the chances i will leave it in the garage more and drive it less?

also then i will be forced to take the inside to bits and make good all the scriatches and dents. this will make me take out all the aftermarket seats, change the damaged parts, and return it to OEM. THis will make me drive it even less and then i will be forced to sell it

what shall i do?
