Wraps are pretty expensive. $4-5k from what I've seen. Post up more pics when the whole thing is done!

How much to send the team wrapping your car over here to do mine? Unfortunately, I haven't seen too many places here on the East Coast that do that level of work for a descent price.

What would it cost to do a quality "paint" color change?

I agree. I have neither the talent nor the patience for such an undertaking. I'd just sell and start over.

Good job....looking good! Many guys do wraps or parital wraps for their track cars. It's not quite the same as a painted finish but it's a great alternative and you can get as 'artistic' as you want.
