Should i colour code myself or pay bodyshop

[Skinny]

basicly as title says should i have a blast myself, am fairly compitant and mate does spray for a garage (bmw) so could do a good job or should i book my car in a get it done professionaly and know im getting a good job?


is it that hard to do, like possability of f**king up or not matching?

Theres always a possibility of it f**king up or not matching.. the money that you spend on primer, paint and laquer, thats probably half the amount for the job to get someone to do it professionally, I done the baseplates and grill on my old saxo and it looked alright.. just the chance you take, costly if it goes wrong though.. If you have the money, I would just pay for it, at least you know its going to turn out right!

Bodyshop. If you use rattle cans, it WILL look like you've used rattle cans.

My mate does ford Ka's (the massive bumpers! lol) in his bodyshop and he takes a day. Garages drop them off in the morning and then collect them in the evning.
