    Goal was to do it myself,and cheap. Got new doors so I didnt want to ride around with diff color doors.
    quart of Shopline paint-$78
    Gallon of Smart clear with medium activator-$66
    Husky disposible drop cloth $1.99
    -All ready had sandpaper,tape and other misc items from previous projects-

    Its not perfect but im happy with it.

    started off with this rotting orange peel effect car;




    Then hours of sanding and buffing due to my painting mistaks
    -No wax,just compound and polishing swirl remover-










    close ups as requested:






    can see the 'pin holes' in some areas i didnt get all the way out.but gotta get close up to see.
