Anyone painted GenRight aluminum half doors?
I'm not sure how much attention I want to give these, wondering if matching black paint will look nasty if not done perfectly, and/or make the interior hotter, defeating some of the purpose of half-doors. Thinking professional painting would be big bucks and I'm not afraid to paint them with either rattle can or HVLP gun I have a little experience with (I can rattle can with the best of them..lol). Will be shopping for aluminum etching primer if I decide to paint.
If I paint black I'll leave the inside a primer grey with clear coat to somewhat match the interior.
Leaving them 'natural' is an option but should I clear coat? Is the CC worthless w/o primer? Or just leave them as they are and clean the aluminum when necessary?

- Finish work is required, if you are not just putting them on a trail rig.
- These doors can be painted or left as raw aluminum.
