alright man, whatever the cost of the paint job that you get will depend on where you go. Which sadly enough depends on the area. What color you get it painted and how it will look all depend on the person you get to paint it. In my opinion the gun metal would look badass and give it more of an edge than black, but hey thats just me. But for the cheapest price ask around a bit, you may get lucky.

When you change the color of the paint, they have to prep the car a lot more becuase they have to paint all the door jams and ect. A good quality Paint job in the same color will run around $1000-1200 To change the color your looking at atleast $2000.
I personaly don't like yellow,
Gunmetal is too "What was that"
I think Dark Blue is the best color for a car.
Just my worthless Opinion

I've seen a couple colors that look nice but I just want my car to stick out. My black is okay but I want something not everyday something that would look nice in a mild body kit.
