changing color is really expensive
respray is one thing. changing color involves spraying the engine bay, inside the doors, inside the trunk. big big hassel and it has a good chance at not coming out how you would like it. if you want silver, it would probably be easier to sell the white car and get a silver one

"WE'LL PAINT ANY CAR FOR $29.95"
Earl Scheib commercial from my youth (Woodstock time). I think for that price they painted everything - glass, tires, wheels, bugs, dirt, rust, etc.
The major cost isn't the painting - it's the prep; trim removal, masking, light sanding. Then rubbing indiv. coats and then unmasking and installing trim. Think minimum of $3000.
