How comfortable are you with pulling the entire car apart? Doors, hood, fenders, trunk, ect? Changing the color makes it a way bigger job...

there's no quick 2 hour weekend solution that's going to give more than spray-can grafitti results.
You'll need to accept that if you want to fix more than a mar or scratch on the car.
I'm doing some of the bodywork, and I have a guy doing the paint, who was taught my a good friend of mine. He does outstanding work. Laid down an eighteen thousand dollar paint job (HoK Tangerine) on a '70 Challenger that was done for concourse level shows.
This is my car at present sitting at the shop waiting to get the jambs and sills shot:
