custom paint bring down the value? not likly, it will just make resell a tad harder to the general public. If done right it will make resell easy to the fbod market and showcar crowd.
just dont expect to get what you put into it.

I def. don't care about resale value b/c this is my first car and i'm going to keep it forever...i have put too much $ in it already...the flakes will be reallllly sublte, not very large flakes...will be a custom dark candy apple red mix...and not sure about the body work, we will just go so far as to get the flakes to stick well and be smooth...the guy i'm using does top notch work...it is a little old school, but i like that look and i have never seen a flaked f-body yet...just want to be different...
