I would be worried that if you try to sell a car that does not have original paint, your future buyers may be a little suspicious. Suspicious about previous accidents, bad paint job (since its not factory), unoriginal part, insurance problems, etc... Plus as stated above, you will never make the money back. This is a very expensive project. Just my .02

No way would I paint a stock car, or a black one. Black has the highest resell value.
I hate the color of mine... if it was stock I would sell it in a second and get a different color.
If I had bought the car brand new and got tired of the color I might paint it. But no way would I pant some used stock corvette when I could just sell it and get another one a different color and be out nothing.
I am thinking about wrapping mine. I am so tired of the green.
I have close to $30,000 in mods on my car over the base cost of the car.
I might paint it next year just cause it is cheaper then building a new car.
I liked the color 4 years ago when I bought it. I hate it today.
Should have waited till I found a black one.

I looked around for a yellow one and couldn't find a decent one within my price range I wanted to pay so I found this one at a decent price and transformed it
