Here's my car.
 
It's actually better looking in real life than it is in the picture, but you get the idea. I've already bumped it into a few things and skinned it up a little, but that's what it's for, right? Anyway, it still looks pretty decent. And the paint seems to stick to the body just fine. So anyway, here you go ...

Thanks. :)

I used regular spray touch-up enamel from the parts counter at the Chevy dealership. I wanted it to match, and my color is pretty hard to find. A lot of people told me it wouldn't work, but after using the car a little, I have decided that's not the case. I made a wrong turn once and clobbered the tire on a real car pretty hard, and it sort of messed the paint up a little underneath, but it isn't cracking off and it isn't really easy to see. It was a hard hit, too--I'm actually suprised it didn't crack the body!
