Default First time painter!

I picked up a cool looking Corvette body at a swap meet and it looks like I can make it fit my Rustler. It is clear and I want to paint it but have never painted one before. I have a ton of questions. First, should I fit it and cut it out before I paint it. Second, what paint? I know most paints will crack off if flexed. I am going over in my head as to which colors to do first, planning to do the inside, and how to do the taping off and such. I know I am going to run in to alot more questions as I go but these two I think are first.
