For these theoretical swaps, are y'all gonna strip your cars nekked, then run to UPS and wait to re-dress your cars when the shipment arrives? Is there an offet in the price for those swapping from metallic to non-metallic, and vice-versa? How to ensure the paint condition at time of swap?

What sort of wrapping/boxing is involved? Will the front and rear assemblies in particular make the UPS (etc.) dimensional wickets, or do they have to go "motor freight?"

Swapping panels

I am envisioning both parties meeting at the closest dealer and splitting the cost. (2+ hours labor)

The process I had in mind for the swap was well worded above by Orphan-Beggar: "I am envisioning both parties meeting at the closest dealer and splitting the cost. (2+ hours labor)"

That's why I specified that I am in Southern California. Pete

I'm on the orphan list waiting for a passion coupe. My hope is for a black one but if I end up getting one of your color requests and you're still looking I'll be in touch!
