I've lurked here on several occasions, but I just joined this forum to say that this is epic. Nice job man, that paint looks amazing.

Went from this:

To this:

Used 3 quarts of Duplicolor Paint Shop Pro. Color was Jet Black with no clear coat. Took about half a quart to get the gun dialed in, so really only 2.5 quarts. Total cost of paint: $60.

Your XJ is awesome man! I've been dying to paint my desert tan, I noticed you painted the door handles and everything. Has the paint worn off of the door handles yet? Mine are chrome and they wouldn't go well with desert tan
