In my opinon get some cheap vinyl off eBay.

When you come to respray properly that paint will be a b!tch.

best bet is to do it inside noooo wind what so ever. even on a nice hot sunny day youll be surprised how the wind can effect spray paint. iv also seen some good results with rollers and rustolen paint.

Just seen that yellow mk3 looks pretty good actually. any idea how many cans he needed and how long it took? does he use primer and clear coat?
