    Question Paint!

    I am looking at buying a fox body but it has some scratches and I would like to paint it. I found two colors that I really like on tcpglobal.com. I don't know if I will go through them, but I just wanted to get an idea colorwise, and pricewise. The two colors I picked are #2701 Firethorn Red Pearl and #2104 Dark Charcoal Metallic. I'm not sure if I want to do a two tone, or stripes, etc. Anybody have any ideas? it is a saleen, and does have a wing, although I am looking into a new body kit since there is a crack in the current one. If I even bought the paint online would any shops paint it for me? Never had to do a paint job so I have no idea. Any help? Ideas? Thanks!

    the paints I was looking at were metallic and pearls, so I figure it would be around 3 or 4k? like I said, no idea what I'm doing!
