Default Painted my undercarriage last year with a paint thats popular....

in the UK. Checked it last nite and it still looks great. Needed a little touch-up here and there but overall it still looks as good as the day I put it on. "Hammerite" is what it's called and can
be bought at ACE hardware stores.

Default The owners manual says not to apply any undercarriage coating and if you do the warranty will be

void, ;-)

Default Sorry for the misunderstanding, I meant the suspension pieces....

the control arms etc. Anything that is not factory undercoated.
Even the fuel lines were painted with Hammerite.

Default How about a 12 year old car? Haha

My '91 90 - pearlcoat - I always hated the white (dingy) wheelwells. So I sprayed them with Rustoleum satin black. What a difference! Sets off the wheels better - and the pearlcoat. I wash the wheelwells whenever I wash the car. Has been almost three years - will touchup next spring.

That's what I meant, the warranty is long expired ;-P
