Looking For Some advise/Opinons

Beleive me I know all about black.If I did get it painted they will use PPG paint/supplies.The shop seems to be getting a good rep,its not local its near Houston.If I do get it done it wouldnt be black,most likely silver.I already got a quote for the work,Im just not sure if I wanna get it done.I know that a factory finish can last a long time,but I dont wanna put out that kinda cash if its not gonna be long lasting...thats my main concern.When my car was hit they used PPG paint but its starting to chip any place that they had painted,thats what im worried about with a repaint.Im looking at about 3k for black but if I change the color its another $800,but thats because I wouldnt have the engine bay done,I mean its black now of which I dont think would look to bad if I left it that way...I dunno,having a hard time deciding.The 03 blue Mach im looking at is only 15k with 49k on the ticker,just waiting on the quote for trade on my car,waiting on the manager to give the final say and a 03 grey GT for 12k but they havnt looked at my car yet.

Also how much does anyone think that an accident on the title would hurt the trade value?I had previously said it was 9500 in damage but I looked back at my original estimate of which ended up being higher than the actual repairs,ended up being $6300.

This is the place:Mustang Performance Headquarters Inc.

They are in the process or have already moved to a bigger shop so the site is still under construction somewhat,but there was some pics of their work in the forums.I have talked to some people I know and they said the cars they have seen done looked good,but I yet to see them for myself.If I do get it done I will be researching whatever shop does it.If anyone else has a shop in mind Let me know im in College Station but would be willing to goto Houston area for the work.

This is what I was actually told by them:

To do an entire repaint of the black, taking care of any minor dents and scratches, you would be in the area of $2800-$3,000. If you would like to do a color change then there is an additional $800 charge.



We only use PPG materials so no worries there. The car would be completely sanded with 220 grit sand paper and then it gets put in primer then completely blocked by hand. From that point it is put in a sealer and then the base/clear. Wet sand and buffing is also included in the price.

No other opinons,I was hoping for more input,anyone?
