Default aftermarket paint color?

Thinking of getting my S painted Lambo orange any opinions? It is red but if I don't change the color I will have to get some repaint done on the front bumper where it's scraped off from previous owner entering and leaving their driveway.

I'll help you out here since most people probably won't. Getting the bumper repainted is one thing. But getting the whole car painted a different is a whole different ballgame. You're talking a few hundred for the bumper vs at least $4,000 for a full color change. I had my car repainted inside and out except for the engine bay, and it cost a little over $5,000. Also, unless you spend double that, there will be imperfections, the paint will chip off in places, and there's just some places where they can't change the color, so you'll be stuck with little accents of your old color. Just a heads up.
