That's not bad...I thought about doing the same to mine.
After forever of watching my clear coat disappear I decided to do something. A friend and myself painted the entire car in Raptor ute liner. I know its not a look everyone likes but its definitely the cheaper option costing me around $750 all up. And its also very forgiving for rookie painters. The rear bar is about to be modified and then both it and the front will be painted in the same paint black. The raptor was tinted with the factory paint code of silver.

Got a sort of Doomsday look about it! Just park it off the trail and NO-ONE will see you...
Nice work . Was that a 'Platinum' edition?

Just sand the car with 180 grit. Mask up the car. Spray an adhesion promoter on plastics and any areas with tight bends. I did all the decals, the flares and the gutter. And spray two coats using the raptor gun waiting an hour between.
Your meant to clean the gun between bottles as your making it up but there was two of us so one person mixed the next bottle as the previous was being sprays for a instant swap over.
Just can't get the paint wet for the first 72 hours.Was the still is. Haha. Not that it changed much about the car
We also painted these two other cars.

How washable is the raptor lining? Any issues with dirt/grease/whatever getting embedded in the textured surface?
