either high temp paint like someone above reccomended or just plain old exterior automotive paint and clear coat will work.


with a dark green car either white or like a gunmetal color.

I got bored yesterday and used black spray paint. I just taped off the tire, sprayed it with some primer, then did two coats of this "industrial" enamel. The crappy paint job fits my POS car.
