I forget the brand of paint, got it from Auto Paint Store in Laguna Niguel. Vivid Black, with 2K Clear. I just sanded down the original paint, repaired minor imperfections and primered, sanded, primered, sanded.
It's not anywhere near perfect, there's some imperfections. Bit it's good enough for right now.

These are my favorite before and after pictures. I bought this '02 about a year ago. Over the winter I pulled the tins (sealed the tank), got new bags and sent them for paint, replaced the cams and installed new tensioners, got the mustang solo and chubby bars. Toying with the idea of laced wheels and white walls next...
