Default Anyone ever paint their lifts?

I was wondering if anyone repainted their lifts. After a while they get all scratched up and all. Just wondering what you used.

I see the rollbar paint only comes in black. I wanted to retain the red that the rustys came in. Maybe I'll just touch it up with some epoxy paint. And I think thtas all the VHT paint is anyway.
