Just a question...but how many quarts of paint will it take to cover the body of a 3rd gen. Cavalier? I'm not sure if 2 quarts would be enough or not?

By 'entire body' do you mean just the exterior panels, or the exterior panels + jambs + underside of hood/trunk/doors + engine bay?

my body guy just used a full quart on a bodykit and fenders... so 3 or 4 would sound definitley reasonable.
