Hood deflector - painted?

[1200GS]

Has anyone painted their hood deflector in truck color? Is that a DIY or body shop task?

It can be a DIY project, if you're so inclined.

Use a proper primer, Color matched paint is available. Many of the off-the-shelf clearcoats are of reasonable quality. Wet sand with 2 or 3 thousand grit. Polish with buffer to an OEM finish.

I fully agree with it being a diy project, but I'm not sure how spray paint will hold up against rock chips. I guess I would just do as many coats as possible while keeping them moderately thin, and same with the clear coat.

So you can get rock chips on the thing you bought to protect against rock chips?
