If you do the prep work yourself, and then used spray can primer, why not check into local paint shops. A lot of local paint shops will put a cheap paint job on a car for pretty cheap. And it might look a lot better than spray cans and probably wouldn't be that much more than actually buying the spray cans.

It might not be the best way to go, but if you are set on getting something on the car to "hold you over" till you replace the panels, than this is an option.

Here is my next question...I have filled in a decent size dent in my fender, I am afraid to fill anymore in fear of cracking, should I pull the fender attempt to hammer out the dent, use a dent puller (not removing fender) or add more filler. BTW...I have no clue how to remove the fender...
