Are you planning on waiting till the weather warms up where you live ? If so I have see some real easy, and cheap tarp/garage type, home made paint booths on you tube. Surprisingly they turned out really decent paint jobs.

This is just some info, remember that if you want a professional paint job, painting it in a tarp or plastic paint booth, will not turn out like a $5000.00 paint job.

Good luck, I hope it turns out just the way you were hoping it will.
