pimpin' IS easy

olive drab looks cool, but will not stay clean. grease and oil here and there make it look crappy too. you will find yourself scotch brighting it instead of washing it... sucks.
but like i said, looks cool. i like your gold tho.

if your paint is good keep it untill you have to do something otherwise if you do paint it make sure you use a good flatner clear coat. i do agree it looks cool but like carwash said it can be a PITA to maintain

Your wifes pimp!

Been there done that with desert tan looked good but you did have to keep up with it with the flat finish but easy to touch up. I would not give up a nice factory finish for it. If you are going to do it get the real stuff I know fred raider that used to be on the bored and the other guy with the M715 used the Military grade paint from sherman williams and he said it would stand up to oil and brake fluid etc....
