The paint has some minor chips. However, I prefer to keep the original factory paint. The car body it's broken at the front right. Those were the only "big" issues with this car. The cleaning and new decals improve a lot the look of the car. The oil makes the car run much smoother. The new tyres improve traction 100%.
