I know of two ways to change the color on a car. The right way is an expensive proposition. It may be cheaper to sell your car and just buy a black one. This is especially true if you have a 320. The other way will drastically lower the resale value of your car. “Drastically”, may not be a strong enough word.

haters crazy
Check out Euro Pro in Gaithersburg, MD. They do good work from what I hear and are reasonably priced. If you have big $$$ to spend check out wagensport but be warned they were gonna charge a friend of mine 2700 just to paint and install a body kit! I'd go to Euro Pro.
Are you going to HIN Chantilly this saturday? If u r keep ur eyes open for my silver clk and tell me what you think.
