Color choice is a matter of personal preference (I like yellow), but changing colors is a lot of work if done correctly. Do you want a Mystic Cobra with OW door jams, trunk, and engine compartment? Respraying the exterior OW would be a lot cheaper because you won't have to pull the engine, etc. I'm not saying you shouldn't change colors, just get quotes so you know what you're up against. A quality job will probably cost $5-10K depending on shop.

+1. If you're not really tied to the car, you would probably come out ahead financially to respray your car OW, sell it, and pick up another car in your color of choice.

seems like u answered ur own question there lol Torch Red is the color your probably refering to as it is much brighter than Redfire. My car in my sig is TR.

As for repainting... I'd say the mystichrome price could be a lot more than the other options, especially if you are considering the full high quality paintjob.
