Just reading these posts makes me sick--again. It seems no one would really want to do it again. I sure know what they mean.

The safisfaction of saying you did it in the garage is not worth much for the mess, and the health hazards. What about the hazards for your family and neighbors? Do you really want to save a couple of thousand bucks and run the risk? To me it just isn't worth it.

I can promise you it will be far more labor than you ever dreamed of. If it is your first car, you will undoubtedly paint it twice and still not be happy with the result.

Like I said, it is better to yell at the body shop than to yell at yourself.
