This is substantially less expense than all new cabinets and, hey, at the end of the day if you don't like it (which I doubt) you'll only be out the paint and hardware.Search youtube for videos of reusing & painting cabinets.

People that try try to negotiate on the basis of providing less paperwork are historically not a good use of time (it's also not a good use of their time, as they aren't truly emotionally ready to get a mortgage), so everyone's sending me tax returns, period, and I'll submit (or not) as/if needed.
