I believe I used duplicor caliper paint. I painted them probably 8 months ago and have only had 1 paint chip that I touched up and this stuff does not fade at all. It is extremely strong and I would recommend it to anyone.

That happens to be one of my favorites. It was really gratifying to have these pictures because I've had parts stacked up in my room for awhile and a lot of work has been done in the past few days. Makes it all worth. Thanks for the compliments everyone.
