Was going to get it powder coated, but then I couldnt match the color so I think i will have to get it painted. How does paint hold up on the aluminum x1 tail? Just dont wanna spend all this money for paint and it be useless. THANKS |

no. I need a pearl white with a red double stripe down the very end of the tail...the whites will not match at all. |

You're probably not going to find a good match for a pearl white. But I don't know why painted would be a problem. My Land Rover has an aluminium body. The paint looks almost as new after 10 years of abuse. |

Sounds neat, I polished mine out. Easy enough to do but then it wouldnt be a one off like your's. Strip it well and sand well. Get it smooth with some wet paper. |
