I'm sure the shop will do a great job...have you seen their work? several
cars??  any black ones? Black is the hardest color to do since all the body
imperfections show up.

Are they going to take it down to bare metal? After the paint is on, are
they going to do the color sanding/blocking?

It's very easy to put this kind of money in a car...will you be upside down
in it afterwards? Do you care if you are? You may want to check what primo
6s are selling for (not asking price...selling price) That may help you
decide.

However, if you are going to keep the car for awhile, then you will get
immense satisfaction out of the appearance.
