should be a bit cheaper than a respray, as they just need to key the laqcuer, as pearl just go's over paint then re laqcuer, not seen a black car done, also what colour pearl you thinking about

they come in plenty of shades and they alter with base colour
with black I might be tempted to go for blue pearl or gold pearl should get a nice effect, but like i say theres plenty to choose from, best bet is go down local body shop ask to see samples of blacks with dif pearls over
