I painted one myself and it came out badly.
The paint process was fine but the lacquer wouldn't play ball.
So I paid a friend £10 and supplied the paint.

you can do them yourself but i had the same problem with the lacquer so i took mine to a local body shop type place and got the 4 of them done, couple of stone chips sorted and a scratch sorted for £50 which is abit more than what i wanted to pay but ahh well!
