Nah yous have got it all wrong, i helped a mate do it to his corolla, it looked HEAPS good!! not.
But seriously he spent $120 in paint cans, for that money you could buy like 4 litres of real paint! and if youve got the compressor anyway just go 4 it.

Reminds me of the moron who took to his XA coupe with an angle grinder and a light disc. Throught if he hit the panel with an orbital sander, then hit the metal with an angle grinder and small disc (less damage you see..) he would be right.

A few coats or red later and... urk Sad
XA coupe beautiful no more, bodyshell rendered almost useless unless you lead wipe the whole friggin' thing!
