Well, my celi is purple... honestly, i don't like that color. however, it used to be yellow and when the previous owner painted it, he had a cheap job done to it. They only painted over the yellow, so is there a possibilty to return it to yellow by sanding the purple coat very carefuly back to the yellow then adding a clear coat finish?


EDIT: The purple comes off quite easily, my front end is full of yellow dots from rock chips, same for the rockers.

I dont think it would be feasible to do, Because it would take so long and after the shop does that, 1) the paint could look bad 2) the paint could be uneven 3) the paint wont be perfect. I would recomend jsut strip it all and start over with the yellow.... Shouldn't be overly expensive because they will not need to do the jams and all that i'm guessing if it was truly a cheap job
