I think your son should pick out the car color,he'll be driving (owning it) it soon enough.

Well Karen.
The bottom line is I suppose how deep your pocket are and what do you want?

Yes it is going to decrease the value of the car. Do you care?

Yes you will have the color you want. Do you care more?

You would spend about 5K getting it done in the color you want and if the car was ever inspected CLOSE they will tell pretty easy, but yoru co-workers will never know.... Do you care?

Of you could take it to maaco.. and get the 250 presidential pait job.. If you REALLY dont care and just want yoru color.

The problem to asnwer this question is we have no idea how deep yoru pockets are.

Seriously though, I can't tell you how many times I have tried to load pictures and the site always says 'FAILED'. My blonde hair prevents me from understanding it!!!
