I would strongly recommend that you see about having a detail shop rehab your existing paint. Even a perfect aftermarket paint job will not have the durability and quality of your stock paint - the factory has access to equipment and processes way beyond what any paint shop can afford. I've driven repainted cars before, and they're very vulnerable to rock chips and other damage. Plus, you don't want to have your car taken apart and put back together, you'll get overspray and other issues, and it'll hurt your long-term value. A good detail shop will be able to take out even major scratches and swirls, and small dings are better touched-up.
