Post up some pics of it out of the box, maybe it will look good enough or close enough to stock black to just throw it on. If not, see above =P
That's what I figured. If it were a glossy color, I'd definitely get a professional. And what you said about paint textures and "strokes" you mean just make sure I spray everything evenly right? And since I'm an amateur at spraying, what should I scuff it up with specifically? And should I use a plastic primer first or just do only the flat black?
