How much it will affect the resale value if repaint? Do you think new buyer prefer clean car or dented car with stickers?
Keep in mind car is insured and no cost involved.

Whn u sell u will hv to hi light number of pieces repainted
Which will bring down the price by 20 -30k imo

First of all you should compound the areas and see the rear door. I think there will just be a dent left behind as chipping isn't visible. If you know of a really expert dry denter, get the rear door dented by him. Whereas for the fender, you should get it repainted...A buyer who is spending around 11Lac wants a car that he can proudly show to his friends and family, no literate man would want to buy a car covered with stickers. You can keep a pic of the car before getting it painted to show to the potential buyers later. Hopefully this wouldn't effect the resale.

If any one know good denter in Lahore , Please let me know. I think must go for dry denting first. If denter can bring it to good condition then I would prefer to keep it original paint But in case not proper finish I go for repaint.
I am confused why Pakstani people don't like fresh painted cars even original faded paints having more demand. I experienced in other countries people prefer clean cars and freshly painted cars these are more expensive then original paints.

Dry dent would be wise choice if you have plan of selling your car. people usually tilt towards " genien " no matter how bad is that genuine paint is.

Dry dent the door and get the fender painted. Take some pics of the damaged areas which have date mentioned in the corner and later you can show it to the buyer. Hopefully they will satisfy him that the car is not major accidented.

So the point is car must not majorly accidental. I think I should post an add first, once potential buyer see then on his demand I can go for necessary repair either repaint or dry denting.

dry dent in door and slight touching on fender .. not complete paint .. no loss in resale value
