I didn't realize until well after I'd already made it halfway through the top side that I should have painted everything a consistent color after I had masked off the bare metal parts, but I just kept going to see what happens.
I saw someone do this on youtube and wanted to give it a try. It looks ok. Will probably look better once it gets a wash.
That said, I'm not sure how to proceed with clear coat. I think I'll give it a gloss coat and then maybe mask off the bare metal panels again before I put on the matte coat (after putting on the decals) to keep the metal parts shiny while the painted panels remain matte. We'll see.
