[QUOTE="kofkorn, post: 478136, member: 7076"] Finally got the paint on this weekend. Not a professional job, but I'm happy with it. The color is muted, but really pops in the sunlight, with the pearl really showinging in direct sunlight. I originally had some issues with the green "frog" masking tape holding, but I switched to some 3M masking tape with much better results. I'm thinking about adding a pinstripe to the transition between the polished surface and the painted surface to protect the edge a bit.
