VW Turbo Golf?

This is not a stab, but if you are asking this kind of question, this endeavor is way over your head. You should be able to get laquer almost anywhere .

i was wondering if its posible to swap a twin turbo toyota supra engine into a 1990 300zx,,?

Laquer has to be color sanded between coats and buffed out after dry to get that great shine, which means labor intensive compared to enamel. Not to mention if your buffing technique is poor, you can burn through the paint especially on edges or creases.

Any info on 2002 Sunfires, your experiences?

If you like the vette', let a professional do it. If you don't mind the quality, go for it. It'll be a learning experience.

I have two 2003 Chevrolet vehicles, I want to swap radios but radios will lock up if swapped. is there any way

There are "auto body supply stores" that will carry and mix colors for any paint that you want.
Best to have the work done by a bodyshop. Let them buy the paint too,, for they would get it at a discount. Lacquer is not easy to work with and you need to do it inside a booth.
Costs are always rising, so you can get a rough idea if you ask the body shop supplier, for they have a good idea how much paint your car will need.
It is not only paint either. The reducers cost too. Mine I do in acrylic enamel, and the cost of the reducers and fish eye eliminator cost more than the paint.
And with lacquer, I believe they clear coat it after(additional costs) which you got to figure in.
Shop carefully for a good body shop painter and see some of their work first.

DODGEMAN, Dodge ram question!?

Lacquer is a fast drying paint that is incredibly thin and brittle. It requires lacquer primers, lacquer sealers, and color sanding. Most Lacquer paint jobs require at least 7 coats of color and two clear --it would be a shame to remove it. Because you can't paint over lacquer , or lacquer sealer and primers with enamels and expect the paint job to last (will fall off in sheets after a few years). i would contact PPG corp. for all the correct supplies for fiberglass and the paint. They may make a epoxy sealer that will adhere to the lacquer so that enamels could be painted over.
