I just turned 16 and I got a new truck I’m looking for a clean white grille and all plastics white on the truck. I’m also gonna remove the bottom spoiler.

    Self etching primer and if you want the paint to match... duplicolor is the closest I have seen.
    They have nissan and toyota colors. Both being Japanese, they have the same paint codes typically.

    Do I need any clear coat so the bugs and rocks etc don’t mess up my paint?
