if you are going to do it to learn......then time and money aren't an issue
.
but if you have a budget in mind then and you don't have all the time in the world then the 500.00 macco is not that bad
.
but don't think painting the car will save you time or money
.
you learn how to paint and this won't be a problem next time,you be a master
good luck
and if you paint it yourself post pictures
