I used the Dupli-Color Mystify?. Had a kit laying around, thought I would give it a whirl. Didn't know how it would turn out so I only did the fuse box lid and the cover in front of the fuse box. I have another kit, probably will do the Air filter housing. Let me know what you think and if I should do the air filter housing.

Did it take a whole kit just to do those two pieces? How easy did it go on? I've been considering using that for some bike parts.

LewiSS- I used the small can kit (Base, Mid, Clear). Since the pieces were black I didn't need a lot of the base coat. I did however use all of the mid color, Duplicolor states that the more coats, the better the effect. I did not use all of the clear either. It went on very easy. You only have to wait until tacky between coats and 30 minutes between steps (base to mid and mid to clear) If you are going to use it on bikes (motorcycles) it is not resistant to gas. Good luck and post your pics when done. I have another kit and plan on doing the air filter housing when I get more time.

:peace:Go for it! I think it looks great! I especially like the color shift. Maybe I'll do something like that. Keep up the good stuff.
