So,

My '07 long bed dual cab, looks like the surface of the moon, courtesy of the Hawaiian Sun.

My question is:
1. How insane would it be to respray it in Solar Octane (or a similar colour)
2. If I'm respraying myself, do you think it'll save me a lot of effort to just respray it the same colour it is?

Anyone have a rough idea how much Base and Clear I'd need to respray? I have an after market front and rear bumper that wouldn't need respraying.
