What paint gun do you use?
I'm on a budget & I'm looking for personal references to a cheaper paint gun.
I will be spraying a Urethane clear & a Polyurethane Basecoat in my garage.
Price ranged is between 0-120 maybe? The gun doesn't have to last super long although there is a possibility I might do everything piece by piece using a solid color. Would this possibly suffice? http://www.ebay.com/itm/10pc-HVLP-PA...95bb5a&vxp=mtr

Things you can try:
Look on craigslist for a SATA or IWATA gun, used but in good condition. These guns are great and last forever.
Try el cheapo guns from HF on a few pieces. Most have a crappy pattern and are inconsistent but depending on what you have lined up, might fit the bill. The HF mini "detail" gun is actually fine once you use tape to seal the cup threads.
Get a starter kit from devilbiss. Suitable candidates:
Higher end gun: http://www.amazon.com/DeVILBISS-Fini...1616931&sr=8-1
Lower end gun: http://www.amazon.com/Devilbiss-Star...1616931&sr=8-5
Get this LVLP gun. It is a good gun, won't last forever but has very low draw so doing an all-over paintjob would be easy.

The kit you posted is probably the same one as made by vaper. Overall they are decent quality but they don't last long and are usually machined poorly (gotta check the nozzle holes to make sure they are clear on the cap and check the spray pattern between coats.)

^^ thats my gun
Also i would suggest not doing the paint job piece by piece, if i were to go back i would just spend the extra hours and mask the **** out of it. Espically if its your first paint job. check out my thread in my sig to see what im talking about.

How do you like the gun? I was planning on doing my lip, front bumper, rear bumper, trunk all off the car, It's a solid black color so I don't think color matching would be an issue?
