I'm debating to wax my car, but i'm not too sure because of all the scratches and chips on the body panels do u me taking rally driving courses. I had some mudflaps, but didn't really help. U could see rocks fly up and hit the side of the car when i was driving sideways:D :D :D
What do u guys think?? There are a lot of chips and scratches. Mostly near the rear wheel wells.

That depends...
1) Do you want a waxed car w/ chips and scratches or...
2) Do you want an unwaxed car w/ chips and scratches? j/k
It's up to you dude, if you like rallying then a waxed car would be easier to get the dirt off.

It doesn't really matter to me.
what other benefits are there to waxing a car w/ all the damage done to it already?

At the very least, it might keep the damage from getting worse due to weather effects. Why not invest in some touch-up paint and 3M clear-bra while you're at it? Or if you don't care about all the rock-chips, you should at least make sure there isn't any exposed metal. Rust is bad.

I was thinking of the touch-up paint, but there are just too many chips. It's mostly on the bumper, so it's just exposed plastic...as for the quarter panels, i'll have to take a good look to see if there is any metal.
It's mostly a question of am i willing to spend the money and time. Since waxing won't get rid of or even cover up the scratches and chips i'm not seeing much of a benefit. But, like some of u guys said, it would protect the exposed areas for awhile, then i have to do it again.
That's it, new plan.....new paint job. Whose got the paint code for Steel Blue Mica?!?
haha.
