cost: dirt cheap. advance auto primer, no clear. No spray gun. Green is duplicolor grabber green engine enamel, flat black is krylon. Rattle can job. Surface prep is everything. Even spray paint can look decent, but it's far from professional. And it's longevity is probably nowhere near that of a quality urethane paint. But it's cheap and easily done. If you get bored of it you can easily do it over without much loss.
