Please don't mess up an EG that has potential. It would look soooo much better with a good looking paintjob. Im sorry but every rattle can job that I have ever seen looks like complete $hit. If you try doing it yourself, go with a solid color and you can wetsand/buff the hell out of it to make it look flawless. A single stage job would run about 200 for decent materials.
