Paint Experts Question
 

My Z is black (Stock Nissan).
IF I were to have the car repainted, should I choose the stock Nissan Black or something else ? (Edit: I would keep the car black, just use a different paint product)
Why? (more durable, better looking, not to expensive, or ?)
Please explain your expertise, experience, or reason to support your recommendation(s) ?
.
Thank you.

Stock color equals less money to do right, respraying the car in the factory color is far cheaper than a color swap since you don't have to do the door jams, engine bay, etc.
I did a color swap but didn't do the engine bay, car was silver and the engine bay light gray. Color was changed to Dark Metal Gray so it's close enough lol

In my experience there's lots of reasons to keep the stock color-
Engine bay, door sills, fuel door etc should all match so folks don't laugh at you.
Also stone chips and scratches will have you forever chasing with a tube of touch-up. If I wanted a different color car I'd just trade cars. 2 cents.
