Why don't you just buy a red or a black one? It would be a lot cheaper

all i can suggest is get some quotes for a respray in your area then compare it to the price of a normal priced ute of the colour you want

im basing my estimate on what i was roughly quoted just to put some SS side vents in. around 2K and that included:
cost of side vents
new SS panels
painting of said panels
blending of paint into doors, bonnet and front bar

its not cheap if you want a decent job done. correct me if i am wrong, but for a full respray they would near have to strip the whole car and remove the engine to paint the engine bay..

i would say betwen four and six.. cause its a white car and would need little prep work.. but that wouldnt be in any fancy colour just factory colours etc...but it would be cheaper if u preped it yourself would save u a couple of grand...

btw from my experiences black is a bitch of a colour to get perfect

also its very rare they strip the car everthing is basicly just covered up.
