nah it was my first time! and i'm not a very patient person either. I really wanted to paint it! but after the first few coats of bondo and sanding them down i just got tired of it and decided to wrap it in vinyl.
You really should try it though. its pretty intimidating at first but once you get started its not all that bad. just invest in an electric sander and LOTS of sandpaper lol. i couldnt have imagined having to sand this bish w/o the electric sander.
