Re-Paint - New Color

It depends what you want.  A darn near perfect color change or a pretty 
good one.  For a darn near perfect one remove door panels, rear side 
interior panels, hood insulation, bumpers, sunroof gasket, roof antenna, 
tail lights, headlights, door rubber, plastic widgets across radiator 
support, battery,...
The more you remove, the better the color change will be.
Personally I like the Alpine white.  Much more repairable than the Pearl 
(how many Franken-pearl CQ's are out there?  I had one.)
