    Cost you least $300 or more. You can do it yourself, but won't turn out as nice. And that's not saying you can't do a good job, but pro job is always better.

    Started with a 89 Accord LXI - 96 Acura TL - 2003 Acura CL Type S..

    Beware. You get what you pay for. If you prep and mask it, they can do a decent spray. Seriously, it could come out WORSE with the way they way tape (or not) the trim and such...

    i'm gonna do the same thing. paint costs here about 20$ (Dupont - metallic). maybe you can ask from your friends, if they know some guy, who does it nicely for couple or beers or sth, if you do the pre-work (sandpaper?) and take along your paint
