thats what I would do anyway.
Yeah but its really not so hard if you take your time and with practice you can do all other bits of your car and save loads in the long run.

The difference in quality is gettin a good orange peel on the lacquer, which means the more you put on, the smoother and better it is, but then too much and it'll run, also getting a smooth orange peel all over is difficult, you'll find its got dry areas here and there when you start doing it from scratch

Well none of it is good for you, but i've worked with thinners before to strip some paint and my eyes hurt and i felt really dizzy for a while

i just got a air fed mask so i can do 2 pac paints and i got mine cheep, davilbiss one which i have been told is the best for about £150!!! dam expencive but its actually cheep to wot it should be, also i got 2 compressors, one for mask 25litre one, and one for gun, 50 litre one! i only have a devilbiss suction feed gun but if all goes well gonna invest in a devilbiss gti gravity one, heard these are the best guns or one of the best!
when u look at the time it takes for a small job its prob not worht your while, i enjoy it, spent 5-6 hours rubbing my car down yesterday to get it smooth ready to paint, painting for first time with 2pac in next few days should be fun, off to mask up the car now!!! umm at 10:30, must me mad - lol

Isn't it bad to spray 2pack primer without proper ventilation?

its bad to spray anything not in proper conditions. invest in the best mask you can afford, and use your common sense. i 2pac prime using a roller, but it stil does you over
