Good Exterior Paint?
I want to clean up my front skid plate, give it a fresh coat of some black paint. My side mirrors on my 894runner are so faded, they are almost grey. Want to paint those black too.....
Whats the best exterior paint for these small jobs? Prefer just a flat black. Nothing great... just want a paint that will hold up.

for the mirrors i bet you could use some stuff called forever black from what i hear, it basically makes it look black again. hah, good definition huh?.
for your skid plate, i bet you could just pick up some rustoleum at home depot and paint it. thats what i did with my sliders and they turned out pretty well. good luck!

Sadly, if it's faded that badly (it looks grey0 you'll need to paint it. At this point, prep is more important than the actual paint. Do some decent prep work, and you can "spray bomb" those parts. Any decent flat black should look good.
