Repainting it costs you twice: it is not cheap to get it done right, and you then instantly subtract a few hundred dollars from the value of a the bike. A repainted bike is always worth less than one in original paint, unless the original paint is a mess, which yours ain't.
As others have suggested, just find someone with a P frame in the color you want and trade it. I'd bet there are a half dozen such people/bikes on this forum who would gladly take that swap. Then for the cost of shipping you get an all original frame in the color you want. No brainer.
