    Yeah mate. Just going to rattle can it for the time being. Get out on the tracks.

    I have a pair of brand new front guards that I will cut and fold at some point when I get serious about the paint again. I don't have a shed so there is no point planning a nice paint job at this stage. The rattle can will come up great. Is White Is Good.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    I've painted some of mine with a high gloss roller. Looks OK but for a 4wd its fine. Looks better than it did. Got to do a heap more like you have though

    I think you need to paint the whole car in bitumen paint then toss on some blue metal as camouflage !!!

    yeah the rattle can will work fine. This last time i sprayed these guards it was with a rattle can and it came up a treat. I note though the paint has faded in the sun in the last 18months and is now clearly a different colour! I will paint with an Acrylic Rattle this time and see how that goes.

    Seriously considering a Camo Paint job with a couple of Rattle cans though! Or maybe some Wrap?

    The wrap would tear off the first time you took it out.

    +1 for the bitumen paint

    Just use black ute
    liner. Bullet proof and
    stylish.

    Nice job, by the way.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    Rustoleum is a bloody good paint to use for the tough stuff and almost idiot proof.
