Default should i repaint my car due to bad body work?

i just got my dc2 painted white and every flaw shows up like crazy such as little dings and bad bondo work, the body work i did on it shows how bad my skills are...the shop would hook me up with another paint job and body work for 200 altogether...is it worth it? or should i just drive it around because it only looks bad in the sun...my friend said people would be too busy looking at my JDM front instead...

if you spent that much dough on getting the JDM front, you might as well shell out another $200 to make your car look flawless. even though people don't really notice it, you'll know it's there.

I agree. If you already spent that much, an extra $200 for a professional bodywork and another set of paint is pretty cheap.
