Color change, looking for a shop.

I'm looking to change the color (black) on my car. I live in Brooklyn, NY, I want to change my color to the San Marino Blue Metallic. Does anyone know a good shop? Someone on the forum told me it would be much smarter to just wrap the car instead if so, does anyone know a good shop for that? Rough estimate or from experience, what would the damage be?

I actually did, I'm going to install it when I put on the front bumper, rear bumper and then bring it in to get wrapped.

No, I had been thinking about it but decided that I'll probably be getting into an M5 in the next 6 months. I just might be done with mods on this one.

Aww man, I wish. It snows too much in the Winter for me to get into those rear wheels. That's why I'm thinking of getting in the 2014 Porsche Panamera Turbo. What mods have you done?

Yeah it needs to run flash, it's not going to work on the phone, but I just checked and it played fine on my computer.

Looks and sounds good, I would be a little skeptical about buying an exhaust from China for thousands of $$$$, unless you know it's high quality. If it sounds good but falls apart at the seams within 12 months, you won't be happy and it's not like China is all that great at refunds/returns. If you're going to spend that kind of money on an exhaust, I would suggest either custom or a more well known brand that is used on BMW's like Eisenmann or Akrapovic, etc.
