I dig the color of your car.
Dont underestimate how hard it is and how much material and equipment cost if you want it real nice. But earl sheib....ewww
I had maaco do my first car. It looked like ***, even with the presidential special which was 799.00 16 yrs ago. I have had all my cars custom painted since then. On average I spend 1200+ in materials and prep work doing it with a friend at his collision center. Not to mention the countless hours getting the body straight, aligning gaps and shaving things.
edit: the quality of the gun is not everything but is certainly important. Some of the sata jet hvlp's are bank. Its easy to spend close to or over a grand
