change the color of my car
So lately I've been getting tired of my Opaline Pearl GS (its kind of embarassing driving a car that turns pinkish!) and would consider changing the color to either Silver, or Alpine White. How much do you guys think it could cost to change the color of the whole car? (I am not looking for MAACO ffs this is a Lexus not a Ford...) looking for a pretty decent paint job located around the Bay Area California. Is it worth getting a new color or waiting 2 years and getting a whole new car?

do you plan to get rid of it in 2 years? if so i wouldnt suggest a paint job then as a good paint job (door jambs, engine bay, etc...) will probably run you around $7k. if you want to change the color, why not a wrap instead? should cost about $2k or less to wrap the whole car

You are going to depreciate the hell out of your car if you don't strip it and paint everything...just wrap it...you've dealt with it this long 2 more years isn't going to kill you...
Also....if you are concerned about it looking pink just leave it dirty...lol

I had the same feeling my car color is Crystalline Ice, basically a light purple but changes color depending on the lighting. I just slapped some dark rims and now the paint job compliments the wheels.
