however, if you do decide to color change, do them a favor and remove everything ahead of time (aka your plastic trim, maybe even carpet, moulding, etc). Makes their life (and your life) a lot easier in the end.
but congrats! FINALLY painting her huh? I've been hoping you'd paint that red & black beast eventually.

I hope your local MAACO is not like the majority of reviews I read about MAACO paint jobs.
Good luck!
Again, if you are going for the color change, make the painters' lives as easy as possible by removing as much as you can. Less overspray for you to be sad about afterward

Get alot of 250 400 and 600 grit wetsand sandpaper. I just say get red.
But knowing you, you want what no one else has so blue is more likely.
Glad you still have the vert.

Ok so I'm just gonna save myself the 400 dollars and roll paint it red. I'd rather buy suspension stuff. I got the wing and the bumper kinda painted, I was doing more of a test run to see how it turns out. I dont think its bad.
I kinda rushed it so it doesnt really look as good as it should. I roll painted my S14 white and it looked pretty good for 35 dollars

So... $1500 -> $400 -> roller paint? AWESOME!
whatever floats your boat dood. I guess anything is better than that multi-colored goodness you had going on for a while, haha.

just get the car prime and get it paint by a professional because you will be very dissappointed if you paint it and it doesn't come out right.
but yeah... if you want to paint it yourself, get full protection of your face. i.e. respitory mask/ googles/full suit... etc... those fume and kill you

Oh my bad, I had thought this was YOUR car... 
Have fun doing the door jambs, trunk, and (if you can even get to most of it) engine bay.
