When you repaint a vehicle it looses 40% of it's resale value and with the type of question you just asked I doubt you're going to appreciate your car much longer so you should probably end up just "blacking it out" even though it's been done hundreds of time. A better option would be investing that money into replacing your coils, plugs and wires.

Just paint it whatever you want and be done with it. If you still need our opinions, then good luck with it.

You didn't ask a question...
You made a statement saying your going to paint your car one of two options and then asked for help.
What's the question? Which one should you choose? If that's what your asking make up your own mind and pick which ever one you like best, it's your car.

a good repaint of the entire car will be very expensive. very very expensive.

Keep the car the color you bought it and work on personalizing it some other way.

^^ emphasis being on "good" repaint.

Then, there is always the Maaco Ambassador paint offering or similar as the other end of the scale

Local shops near me want 2500 to 3k for a repaint. 600 for a new bumper match (40th) and 1k for installation. love the pricing but understand it too.
