It depends on the bike. If you have a Campione de Italia that came with a mixed component kit swapping it to all CampI won’t suddenly make it ride better or be much more valuable. As to paint....Bianchi bikes came in lots of different colors so unless the current paint is in horrendous shape a professional repaint may cost more than the bike is worth.
