Your tools probaly would appreciate owning a Autozone, and if you want to fix her yourself, go over to the paint forum on FTE for help to do that.

You can do it yourself and learn a great hobby, but prepare to buy a book, or get the video from paintucation.com by Kevin Tetz. Supposed to be awesome. I worked in an autobody shop, so that was a great help to my confidence!
