Color sand all panels?

This may sound like dumb question, but there it goes: Do I have to color sand ALL my body panels? I painted my truck in pieces inside my garage. Squirted three coats single stage urethane, then followed up with two coats of clear. For the most part, the truck looks great. Had some dust nibs in the hood (since I painted it on sawhorses and it was flat), which I have already sanded out. The doors I ended up running some of the clear, so I sanded those out. The front fenders look perfect. The cab for the most part looks perfect. The bed has a couple of small imperfections. My question is can I 'spot' sand? I'm going to cut and buff the entire truck, but just questioning if I need to SAND everything; or will the cut and buff take care of the very minor imperfections?

Heres some pictures just after paint if it helps - the pictures of the hood are before and after sanding.

Thanks in advance - Ryan
