I've been debating doing almost exactly that. I'm thinking a tiny bit darker though, if I decide to do it at all.

I'm poor, unbelievably poor... so I'm considering just sticking with stock red, and repainting it as such. I'm thinking it would be rather tedious to strip EVERYTHING and repaint the entire car top to bottom... so an exterior re-paint and touch-ups as needed for door jams, engine bay, trunk, etc.

I'd kill for that color, or for a medium green that truly shines in the light. :(
