Keeping the stock parts stored away safely is ALWAYS a good idea. In the event (I pray it does not) an accident happens and the insurance totals it. You can then take all your aftermarket parts off and recoup some of the money.

In addition, if you ever sell it (Again, I hope you do not!). Some people might value the car higher being closer to stock over modified.

I have done this with my '92 300zx Slicktop since I bought when I was 15.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do with it and be sure to post up pics!

As for your original comment, a dealership can be both good and bad when it comes to painting. Almost any GOOD body shop can match the paint color and may indeed be cheaper. With that said, do your research and price different body shops in your area. The old saying, "you get what you pay for" definitly holds true with any body work you have done. So take your time and ask a lot of questions and DO NOT jump for the first offer a body shop gives you.
