I'd do both. Insurers will need to know incase you claim and DVLA will need to know to update there database.

Probably looking around £1k ish for a half decent job, depends on colour, what condition you bodywork is in at the moment etc.

Will cost more if you are wanting to repaint the engine bay etc too.

Basically you pay for what you get. My mates paying about 2.5k for his 4X4 cav turbo in the same colour, whereas ive heard of boys offering to do them for less than a grand!

I'd expect it on a "FULL" respray

£1000 upwards for cost, depending on paint, work required, etc.

If you change the colour you will have to put that on the V5, mine went from red to a different red so I didn't bother!

Put on insurance it had a full re-spray though
