Default Should I paint my car myself?

OK heres the deal. last month my sister backed into my car putting a huge dent on my quarter panel. I pushed most of it out but the whole area still needs to be repaired. I am down in key west so one ONE place will do a whole paint job (the rest only do collision), and they want $2000. My dad knows how to paint cars. So I might just doall the body work myself, strip the entire car down (unlike a body shop where they will tape off everything), and repaint the car and interior to match. plus it will be MUCH cheaper
