Exclamation Painting Coilovers...

I am almost positive this has been posted before but cannot find it anywhere. Can anyone let me know what kind of paint I need in order to paint my coilovers. Blue preferably. Please let me know, I was thinking a Latex paint for its durability but thought it would tear off after a while. Please let me know.

Thanks!

Any kind of spray paint should work but remember to use primer first or the paint will not stick. Or even use the paint used to paint brake callipers with, that seems to be more durable.

better get the kind of paint that can bend and twist or else the paint will chip off right after one drive...cuz remember the coils move pretty hard when you drive...
