Moved to the Pub where you will get a better response.

The member you could PM is wadsymoo (Jason) he is a spray painter and would be able to offer you the best advice.
I know when I get my car done I wouldn't trust anyone else other him to do it or to advise me where to go for it to be done

changing the whole colour of the car is a major and expensive job.most panel shops would charge between $6,000 -$8,000.instead of just spraying the outside of the car you need to remove all doors prepare and paint all door jams and the inside of the doors aswell ,inside boot jam and under the boot and bonnet.depending on how far you want to go the engine bay is a big job if it is to be done properly.for this amount on top of the sale of your el you could own a ba falcon.to me yellow is just acceptable in a ba gt,and would look shi* on a el like some other guy said about the taxi call.my advice would be DONT DO IT.SPEND YOUR MONEY MORE WISELY.
