OEM paint would be the cheapest way.I did the sanding down and primer already just need someone that knows what they are doing to paint it

It looks like black matte paint that you draw on with chalk.  
When it rains you get a brand new freshy fresh canvas.

Have it done at the dealer if you want it done as close to factory as possible and with a lifetime warranty…

that’s the worst advice i’ve heard so far…

the dealer sucks. take it to a reputable BODY SHOP who does nothing but paintwork. most dealers aren’t all that hot with they’re work, not to mention way overpriced.

They did a factory fresh job on my car.

Of course I wasn’t the one paying for it, they were. So money was no object in my case. :lol
