Thanks ... just a quick bonehead question ... I can go search too. Do I need high temp paint for this or regular paint hold up fine?

yep, as the story goes when i changed my bumper and grille, i had a new grille with a big black spot in the middle, my old symbol was in awful shape, so i got the black area chromed to match the grille, then put that symbol bc i didnt want to go through the hassle of retaping and whatnot, though i may be getting a trenz sometime soon

I know my car is black but I just wanna give you an idea..

I had blue calipers before I painted them red. Blue is good, but red stands out WAY more. And more people like that. So do I.

I used engine enamal from discount auto parts for $3.75 a can. So far it's holding up nicely.

I've also had that enamel in my engine for about 5 months now and it still looks as good as the day I did it.
