Very nice. I'm thinking about doing the same to mine. Please enlighten us, what paint did you use?
No hurry though, I want to bump this in a year and see how the paint is standing up to everything. I'm a brake ***** and I know 1000+ degrees will be seen at some point, and often...so I'm worried about how these home done paint jobs hold up.
