Yes - you can do it yourself, but by the time you've bought all the spray and stuff (you need 1/2 layers of primer, 4/5 layers of paint, 3/4 layers of laquer) it sometimes isn't much cheaper than paying someone to do it, and if you do it yourself theres a good chance it'll start to chip off after about a month....(speaking from experience)
Get out your Yellow Pages, and phone all your backstreet bodyshops for a price. You'll probably be able to get them both sprayed for not much more than a hundred quid.
You'll get better results than trying to do it yourself.
Dan, wont that look a bit weird, half covered in primer, four 5ths covered in paint and 3 quarters covered in laquer? ;)
Yea i s'pose it might :) Maybe try doing it in layers instead :D
