What paint have you guys used when doing this and do you clear coat it too? TIA.

you can probably lightly sand it (prep) and spray paint it with the auto paint that
the auto stores sell. no clear coat. maybe use high temp paint for the engine bay since that strut bar gets HOT!

I used Krylon HiTemp (red) then used Krylon crystal clear high gloss it's a
protective clear coating, non yellowing formula. You can also use the cryatal clear on copper and brass to keep it from turning color.
