Is this done professionally with clearcoat? Not into the spray canned look.

For 20-30 bucks you can get PPG paint put into a spray can at any color. You just need the color code. You can get these at Auto-body supply stores (not autozone). Then take it to any body shop that can clear it for you. Just let them know you will mask and prep everything, they just need to walk in and spray the clear on. Cheaper alternative to rattle can, looks 100 times better, way more professional. $20k+ car and 3 dollar rattle can job don't go.
