i did mine... i used just regular acrylic paint and a brush and like painted a design on the side after painting the whole thing a solid color with regular spray paint from wal-mart. id lightly sand it anyway just to make sure the paint will stick ok in all areas and then just spray paint it like you would anything else. then just get a clear coat (gloss or matte, whatever floats your boat) and spray a few layers of that on and youre ready to ride
