Are you sure that they'll pay for a colour change? I'd assume they'd pay for a repaint cuz a colour change is more $$$$

Anyways, I'd go with white and some type of pearl clear coat

Most flake paint jobs are really expensive. Check out auto gallerys blue accord with jumbo sliver flake, then ask him how much it is ($5000 )

Go blue with the flake.

Stay the same colour, it will look weird cause when you pop your hood it will be a different color and if you were to gut your car and stuff, IMO it won't look that good in the engine bay, etc.

He wouldn't be opening the hood anyways....he has nothing done under there, so no one would see it except him.

I personaly like the colour it already is. but that's 2C's.

A good shop would, a better shop would take the door panels off and paint them that way.
