Resale value and changing colors?

I am looking at several 914s in the area, partly for education and partly because I want to get a pristine sample of a 914. My question is:
Since I do not like the colors that I am finding on these cars (original paint), can I change colors without reducing the value of an otherwise original 914?
Of course, the paint change would be a professional well done paint job. I have seen several 914s which "to make them more atractive" were given a quick cosmetic paint job, which is so cheap that the new owner, if he or she is knowledgeable, will have to remove before repainting it right. That is why some experts recommend buying cars with the original paint job even if it is faded.
