Default whole car refresh...

Of course, I'd get to the point where I finally get some ***** behind the car (V6 -> V8 swap) and now the paint is the bad part.

The hood's clear coat is peeling BAD, as is the passenger rear quarter. I finally found a TA hatch too (unfortunately 2 of the 4 corners are buggered up fairly bad and will need body work) and put that on and it's not the factory 95 white that we were told. It's a pearl white of some sort, has metallic flake in it. I LOVE the color.

I have had a few quotes as far as getting the entire car repainted in the metallic white color and I'm just wondering as to what others are looking at or preview for a total cost on this?

I don't want the jams or trunk or engine bay painted. Just want the outside...
