To change the color the right way you'll have to paint the interior, exterior, trunk, and engine bay. That will require taking apart the entire car. If you can do that yourself I would say to look at spending $2000+ at most shops. If you can't take everything apart then you'll be looking at ALOT more, probably at least $6K, most likely more. THEN you have to wonder if they can actually put the car back together the right way. |
Special Edition Titanium Grey..... 25G
thats what ill paint mines. it wont be a far cry from sunbeam silver metallic k3(or 5) |
Good freagin luck to even find a shop to do a full paint job, let alone one with a color change. The thought shouldnt be " i never thought it would be this hard to pick a color", as it will be "where will I find a competant shop to paint my car"....and even MORE importantly " WHERE THE **** AM I GOING TO GET THE MONEY TO PAINT MY CAR??" better ask daddy to take out another loan, lol
