40th paint job color

Why is it absurd to repaint your car? Especially with all the complaints people have about the factory paint. Would it be expensive? Of course, but I hardly think it's absurd. I for one have always loved dark green cars but of course Nissan doesn't offer that color. If anything were to happen to my car that required a respray, I probably would spend to the extra money to go ahead and change the color.

To the OP a proper color changing respray (including door jambs, under hood and such) would easily run you 3 to 5 grand depending on how much prep work you are willing to do (i. e. Stripping the interior, and pulling glass and lights, etc.) To most this is too much of a hassle/expense, but to a few completely worth it. That decision is entirely up to you. If you are serious, then stop by a few body shops and get quotes. Won't cost you anything but time.
