I plan on keeping it the OEM color (Black Currant Pearl), but this does look appealing (http://www.tcpglobal.com/kustomshop/hrf261.aspx) as another option. Only wanting to paint the exterior body panels.
Any one know what it might cost me wise to get all this done? I also have a partial OEM lip kit I'd be throwing on and new front/rear bumpers. I'm hoping I might be able to keep this below $2k if possible.
Pics of the paint - this is my main reason for wanting to get it painted. These are the worst spots on the car but it's starting to look like this more and more all over the car.

My paint's falling/chipping off but looks like yours is damaged by the sun. I live in Oklahoma/Tennesee and i've been quoted $3k by just about every freakin body shop i've gone to so i'm bitin' it and paying it.

It is...all over the car. Unfortunately I don't have the option of putting my car in a garage or shaded spot. It either sits in my driveway or on the street.

Is it worth saving up a few thousand for or just take it to Maaco? I do know a few people that could hook me up on the paint job, last year a guy I sold some rims to quoted me @ $1500.
