I have a rare vehicle

I prefer not to say what vehicle but only few hundred made

Woundering if fixing a small crack on the fender (it’s not metal it’s fibre type fender) and some minor paint blemishes is worth it (not expensive to fix)or just leave it as is

Will it effect the value if I just leave it or should fix the issues

My concern is if I try to fix the crack or some small imperfections on the paint it will de value it more then if I just leave it as is

Thanks

Do you really expect an answer without anyone knowing the basic details on the vehicle? Btw, welcome to AF.

I guess my question is should I fix minor paint issues or just leave it as is - it’s also a low mile example but I figured due to small type of imperfections I should leave it as part of vehicle history and originality

Any thoughts

Re: I have a rare vehicle

If the vehicle is all original and has not already had any paint work, then I would suggest not repairing the area or areas if they truly are minor.
