Here's a site for example, their paint is SUPERIOR to por 15:

Press the "+" on your keypad to view it larger btw, "-" to make it smaller again. (make sure num lock is on)

Why not just rent a car while performing major upgrades? I bet the better milage you will get with a rental car will outweigh the cost of running it in the first place!
