New cheap paint job!

Well, I have been working when I have a little time here and there on my old 4Runner. I am trying to get it fixed up, and drive it back and forth to work and medic school. The silver paint was peeling and fading on it after 248,ooo miles. This past Friday I decided to re-paint her. All for $40 in tape, and Rustoleum Deep Forest Green Camo paint I was able to give her a new look. Now when she gets scratched up, I can just get a 6-pack, andother $40 worth of paint and have her looking new again!!!! Heck I might never wash it, just paint over the dirt!!! LOL!!! FYI - I am painting the centerline of the hood black, just for fun (it's not going to be any show truck) but have a can of bedliner spray I am going to spray it, because the 99 cent black spray paint peeled with the tape! Just wanted to share, and see what you guys thought!
