Depends on how much elbow grease you wanna put into it, you can go the roll on method but be prepared to spend your free time wetsanding. You can buy a cheap harbor freight spray gun, some paint off jegs and rent/borrow/make friends with someone with a compressor and go that route or do the bodywork youself and have maaco or the like shoot it.

^_^ John Deere Blitz black (Satin Black).....You can roll it on or if you have a compressor you can buy a paint gun and spray it on easily....You dont have to prime it but its better if you do
