The paint scheme was such a promotional trick I would be surprised the 757 was re-painted to normal scheme .. tho you never know!
Well, after doing a bit of research on the topic here's what I found:
Both N951AA (the 738) and N679AN (the 752) were delivered new from Boeing in the AstroJet scheme (in 2000 and 1999, respectively). Originally, they were just to remain in the AstroJet scheme until their first Heavy-C-checks. N679AN (still sans-winglets) was repainted (presumably during its first Heavy-C-check) in late 2003. N951AA remains in the AstroJet scheme, despite obviously having already one Heavy-C-check (likely in 2004).
