Red looks great on XJs and ZJs. And funny thing is, unlike most other car mfgs, red seems to last on Jeeps.

Unlike green, which chrysler seems to be the worst in the world for in terms of paint life. Especially on their minivans. I think chrysler's green paint begins to oxidize five minutes after it dries. That being said...if you have "forest pearl green" the duplicolor looks pretty damn good. Almost an exact match to the factory paint, even on my '93

Generally, if the person i'm with isn't supporting me (which will never be the case) then it's not up to them when it comes to what I use my money for.

Already been living together for 5, so I guess only 5 left? Lol. Don't see myself getting officially married any time soon.
