Yes it is possible, yes it will alst if done right, and yes it probably should have a coat of primer. Take it to a body shop and let them do it right the first time for you. Those spray can jobs just do not look as good on exterior body parts.

Yes it can be painted, But like KY ford says take it to a shop, they will have to used a catalyzed primer to make it stick well. Hope this helps. Larry
