if you are asking this you are better off taking it to a shop and getting it done.... just save up your money and get it done right :thumb:

its cool that you want to learn but you should start on test panels first...if you try and paint it and fuck it up then it will look worse than before you started...practice makes perfect :thumb: lol

if you want it to look nice i would suggest doing to right not half assing it... rollers are for houses you might aswell use a wagner gun and pait your car and house at one time with latex paint...
