the painting actually goes really fast its the prepping, masking and taking everything apart that takes forever

Dood. I was totally thinking of painting mine that color, but using a single stage paint for it. I will wait till I pay it off though. I love it. Looks great!!!

You should paint the grill black.

My dealership group's Jeep store does package Jeeps and they did a sweet Willys jeep and that's how they did it and it looked great. I wish I had pics of it, it was a Jeep green 2 door with half doors and the appropriate decals. It was lifted with 35s on it. Most people thought it was done from the factory, I wish I took pics of it...
