I painted mine with some spray paint from the parts store. My friend painted his and told me what color he used. I only painted a few panels and the front bumper as a test. It looks great but I know I should use the flex paint. At that point I figured anything would look better than it did. I used the waterhose and fine sandpaper to get the old paint off and to rough the surface up. THen I used thin masking tape and plenty of newspaper. I also carefully applied the tape so I didn't paint the rubber strips at the top of the panels. THen sprayed one thin coat and let dry a few minutes. Another few coats of paint then a couple coats of clear. It's been since last summer and it still looks great. I sprayed the entire area around the car with water (in the driveway) to keep dust to a minimum. It's not that hard to do. You'd be surprised. I'll post a few pics if interested.
