CAGiversary!
A couple of months ago I bought a 2006 Monte Carlo LT, it was around $12,000 which for that model was about $5000 under KBB value. Im satisfied with it performance wise and it and im satisfied with the CAG price. The thing is I can't help but notice imperfections on the body. When I bought it, the car had some obvious dings and dents on it, so I paid about $190 to have them removed via Paintless dent removal. All was well with the exception of a small dent on the gas door which cant be fixed without replacing the entire gas door, so i dealt with it.
Fast forward to last weekend when I noticed a tiny little ding on the bumper and then this morning I noticed a very light dent on the side of the car. When I mean light I mean LIGHT. You have to be at the right angle and in the right light to see it. Being a cheapass I dont want to pay anymore money to get the dent and ding fixed. The thing is im obsessed with looking for them and trying to keep my car perfect. I know this is a hopeless cause since its a hunk of metal asking for it's destruction. Sometimes I find myself wishing for my old POS car back that way I dont obsess and worry over this. Anyone have some advice besides psychiatric? Has this phobia occurred to someone else?
