does anybody here have before and after picture of their cars for when they had paint correction done.
My car's clear around the splitter looks really bad and was wondering if professionally done paint correction really makes a difference?
Maybe I should just get it repainted?
Anyhow, any feedback is appreciated.

If there are minor scratches or swirls in the paint, those are an easy fix. If there's chipping, lifting or other paint failure, the bumper will need to be repainted.

Look into paint protection film. Paint on these cars is thin.

Paint correction is a very broad generalized term. If you aren't doing the work yourself, you may want to just show the car to someone who you're considering and ask them. My car is black and also noticed some spider-webbing on the spoiler paint. I did a light paint correction with a random orbital polisher prior to ceramic coating. In direct sunlight it's still visible but minor enough to not be noticeable now, and I also didn't want to get too aggressive on the clear coat. So part of it comes down to how deep they are in your case, and how aggressive you or the person doing the work is willing to get.

Paint on these cars is the same thickness as on anything else, and it's under a standard layer of clear urathane.
