I LOVE my black tunnel, unfortunetly it looks like crap. I do not have time to remove it and powder coat (2 jobs, wife, baby coming, etc)

I was thinking of taking to a body shop, is there a paint that will hold up better if a pro paints it? What do they use on alumin boats they seem to hold up from water, sand, and trailer bunks and rollers etc??

Paint guru's educate me :)

Also what would yoy pay for a auto body paint job on the tunnel?
 
Not a paint guru but when i painted my tunnel i got some self etching primer to cover the aluminum and then I used a can of BLACK DUPONT BUMPER PAINT. generally lasts a good 3-4000 mile season. Only have to touch it up in the Fall to give a fresh look. only wears near the boot area but so do most factory painted tunnels.
