Default Need input on paintjobs

I'm looking to paint my car black. Need some input on cost and whatnot. Also, if any Photoshop guru's are able to assist with a preview that would be much appreciated

My input: not worth it.

For a quality color change you're going to spend at least 5 grand. You'd be better off demodding, selling the car and buying a black one.

What about a touch up then?

Also, I wish z28 Camaros were common in AZ, let alone black ones....

Just do something differant to the blue maybe add pearl or run some ghost flames in blue pearl from the front. Like the man sad above you better hold on to your wallet esp. when going black because every little dig
and nic has to have attenion other wise you get the Macco special for 299.00 all in a day OHHH WHAT A DEAL!
I think the blue looks good on your car, just play with the existing color and save some money

Thanks for the suggestions. Any idea how much it would cost to do an all over touch up (?)
