Wrap it white?

Yeah just not the same...I asked...I got a quote for 2k and was told it would only last around 2 yrs...

You're going to lose a ton of money on all those mods if u sell it.......then you'll buy a white one? Same car???

Why not spend $3,000 for a decent white paint job?

That way you won't spend the dough on all the mods again

BTW....were you on the 215 near Murrieta/Menifee tonight??

Respray then. Tell them to cover all areas like Honda pro Jason.

Unless you do all the disassembly yourself including windows a $3000 paint job is going to look like shit in comparison to OEM.

Probably will be less than a wrap or a complete paint job, which will kill your resale value btw.

Assume the dealer will give you around $30-32K. Now is probably the best time to start making calls.

Bump

I say keep it, until the refresh of 2020.Than you should either trade it or sell it. But if you really dislike the red color sell it and buy the one you want, like they say patience is virtue.

Whatever you do, please don't paint the car. When you resell the car, you will lose the entire paint job cost (i.e., no one will pay extra for that) and, in fact, you are guaranteed to lose thousands in selling price off the fair market value. No one is gonna want a painted car, be it Championship White, Phoenix Yellow or Pink Grapefruit. In fact, you may have trouble selling it at all. You are not talking about a 2009 Camry. Don't do it.

Bump!
