There is a company local to me that does the same sort of thing that you are thinking of doing.
I think he gets around the law as he is spraying stuff that he can do in the van, so it is an enclosed area  Thumbs Up!

Good luck to you if you run with it  Thumbs Up! One problem I can invisage though is if you paint metallics you will have problems matching up to adjacent panels if you spray the panel as a seperate job
