Its gonna be a far from quality finish for that much I'm afraid.

As long as its not a metallic colour you want, its not major hard to do.

get urself a piece of scrap metal, a compressor and some spray guns and practise then once your satisfied on the scrap metal take you are practice to the car itself, I'm tryin to enrol my self on a vehicle body course, i currently work as a mechanic at Peugeot (i hate them too) so good luck

Someone who knows what they are talking about helping you along will be a better aid than anything. Few times I've tried to do things myself its just gone tits up, but after I had a mate who works in a bodyshop by trade help me out I'm quite happy plodding on at my own pace. I'm fine with most prep work, just not actually got round to putting colour on anything.

Could get it done really cheap and let your local college loose on it? Obviously the quality would be compromised but you could also be suprised there's bound to be some really talented lads or lasses there!??!?

Or turn it matt white and rattle can that sucker! Then you don't have to change any details onthe car documents!
