Total repaint will be at least $4K+ for a job done right.

Sell it if you don't like the color and buy a Silverstone.

Repainting will send the value of the car to the floor.

plus also you have to remove the engine to paint the engine bay and the trunk and the door sills. i agree with everyone else, sell it and buy a color you like.

unless there's some seroius paint damage, leave it alone. $4k plus can be better spent on mods or more toys.
