I might have a pic of my old XJ... I painted it Krylon super flat olive drab... It looked really pretty neat.. The best part was that if I scratched it a bit, I could whip out a spray can and fix it...

Rustoleum Camo Ultra Flat Tan. Home paint jobs look great on an XJ. Easy and cheap to fix!! That reminds me, I need to fix the area behind the tires!! LOL!!
