Another option: you can have Lowe's match the rust-o-leum to your car's paint, it will help if you can put a dab of the color WITHOUT CLEAR COAT on a paper, about 2" square. Then follow the ninja250faq directions on painting, spend a week and do about 6-8 coats since it is super cheap.

Also, and I recommend this, you can buy the Rustoleum clearcoat in a rattlecan, it has a nice glossy finish. And it should bond to the paint. You have a professional finish at less than 1/10 of your lowest quote. Then sit back as everyone gasps at the awesomeness of your diy paintjob.
