    Not to be a a**hole but I'm sure you haven't gotten much help on this topic because it has been covered so many times. Search engine will give you a lot on insight on this particular topic. Good luck though.

    Should cost $100-$200 DIY(Figure- Polishing compound, 4 cans of spray paint, 4 cans of clear, 4 cans of adhesive promoter, sand paper, shipping costs, etc, Here's a link for some spray can paint same color code as my car, not just a duplicolor color <--I wouldnt expect to find that color match in a hardware store, thats why I would order that online). As soon as I replace my clutch and I dont have to always have money on hand worrying when its gonna go, I'll be DIYing it. Here's a good thread that might motivate you. Everyone talks bad about trying to do a DIY spray can job, but there are 2 things wrong with that:
    1) If they didn't have as much money as they did to pay a professional to do it, they themselves would consider/try a DIY.
    2) There is nothing wrong with a DIY paint job as long as it's done right, lots of people wont be able to even tell the difference if you didnt tell them.

    Here's the other 2nd link I was talking about: Click
