I wouldn't

Had a mate paint his whole S3 Landy in Hammertone... looked crap

My 2 cents

errr yeah it was Outlaw:) have to admit he did paint it with a brush (also I'm sure he forgot to wash the car first which didn't do much justice:p)

Metalic grey would be the go.. would give it a cleaner finish

another 2cents worth

Most hammertone paints are not UV stable so an issue with painting on sun exposed surfaces.

:p:p:p:p

Did too wash it... well hose it at least and looked fine... from a distance :angel:

I'd say go for it... but go for a silver hammertone maybe, then can just touch up if gets scratched :D Or matt black... i love matt black and a couple racing stripes to match your rangy ;)
