Get the frame powdercated. Trust me it will be muuuch better.And paint the fenders with Krylon Fusion in whatever color you want.

if You want ot do the fender right go to an auto paint store and get bulldog paint adhesion promoter for bumpers and plastic and then use that right before you put some color on it (automotive paint) and candy apple red would be sweet, thats if your using true candy paint (house of kolor) check out my yahoo page

What I did with the frame on my quad was lay down about 2-3 layers of Tremclad rust paint, and then I went over that with about 2-3 layers of clearcoat, it seems to hold good, unless you rub a piece of metal or something along the frame, and for the plastic, I painted mine with Krylon fusion primer(1 layer) then the color of paint in krylon fusion(1-2 layers), then the krylon fusion clear coat(1-2 layers), be sure not to put too many layers of paint because it puts weight on the fenders which bends the fender, then it crack the paint, so keep the layers light. Hope this helps

well over here in Canada I got it at Canadian Tire, but just go to a local hardware sore and if they have spray paint, the will probably have that kind of paint too.
