didn't know they had it in regular cans.
but I guess they do on their site
 I once prayed the side of my car (not this one) using duplicolor.
1 fender took a couple cans but it came out almost factory looking

That's not my first choice of colors, but I think you did a nice job on where to two tone it. Please post up some more pics when you get some more clear on it. I have to be honest, even though I'm not really a fan of orange, I'm liking it. Pretty cool.

You should respray the factory red stripe on the rubber molding to match the top. I think that it would bring it together nicely. It's hard to pull off a red and black two tone and have it look right. Maybe even paint the red stipe black and use a silver pin-stripe to break the red and black. One or the other, just my opinion. I like it, though. I want a set of wheels like that for strip use. If I could ever find time to do some real racing.
