Default Repaint - Spies Hecker

Plainning to get my car repainted. its currenlty this dark green.

Just found this place that sells Spies Hecker paint for $19 a litre. I believe i need about 4L for the car.

Plannig to also paint the lowers wiht the body color and protect it from chiping with the hardner

Any reccomendations or suggestions?

4 liter sounds kind of low. Would like to know what you actually end up using.

Default Ming Blue is a nice understated look :-) but...

I've always thought an A8/S8 in Tornado Red would be sweet!
