Go a shade lighter. Do an overlay, so you can peel it off if you dont like it. Cost me 140 for mine.

I wouldn't use any type of spray perhaps you can use some vinyl instead.

Non taken. Mines are vinyl overlays done by a local bodyshop. Its so clean, people dont even notice its been modified. Looks identical to the blacklines shade.

Vinyl can be pulled off if you dont like it, paint wont.
