exactly. you might want to consider having a shop do this.

if your trying to avoid a 5000+ dollar paint job, you could do the prep work yourself (sanding, body filler, sealer, primer) then take it too a maaco shop, wash, tape off and degrease it yourself right before paint

you will need a guide book. theres an ooooold book that i have some where, ill try to find the name, but id just search ebay for a body and paint guide book.

if this is your first painting endeavor on your own, i strongly recommend you go talk to a couple shops or do some reading and research on paint and body work, it is no small task. believe me, i know..
