Ok, bought the paint, primer, topcoat and clear. Also bought a new gravity fed gun. Turns out the green paint, code 8k4, is actually a pearl. Well it has a gold pearl in it. Still the same price as metallic, so all good. Looks to be a sunny day right now, better get out there, finish off the little filling work I've got left for the roof and put some primer on!
On a side note, just because of peer group pressure, I've been thinking about what stupid huge mods I could do to it. If I were to play around making it looks awesome and all I would be looking at something like 3" body lift, no strut extensions but instead 3" extended shockers (using inserts). I'd put 2" over size AT tyres on (something like a 235/65R16). Then some bash guards for the driveshafts, sump and exhaust. It might happen.... But I would have to be convinced onroad characteristics would still be good!
