So my celica is white now and I just turned it in to receive a fresh new paint job. I chose hot rod black which is a flat black but with protectant. I'm having the front ss-III splitters installed as sell and replacing the pass-side fender. It'll be about a week's wait so I post up fresh pics when I get the car back.
This is what it is now before the paint: ![]()

If you are going to stay white, I wouldn't have them paint the car at all. That's like giving up your money to get what you already have. I would have them fix the rust and do the splitters, but I wouldn't have them touch the rest of the car. There are things you can do to bring the life back to the rest of the paint if you aren't satisfied with it.
