    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)

    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.

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

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