yeah there is a 200 page thread on the Honda forms and another 180 page thread on a MOPAR form.

The short of it is some guy used trimclad/rustolium paint to roll paint on his car. takes a lot of wetsanding but you get a really good finnish (if you put in the work) and you don't need a paint booth, sprayer etc, you can even do it outside panel by panel. its called "50 dollar roller paint job"

the latest method is to use boat topcoat paint (because it has better UV resistants and shiner) but is more expensive, still can roll it on though.

Here is a shot of the bodywork mounted on Josh Sernes NSR50 from the opening round of the SMRRC series held in Stockton. There will be windscreens available from Zero Gravity shortly.
