Have a look at the Panda (Aza's FTO). That will give you a pretty good idea as well.

that looks bad imo.
getting your lip done sounds good. or maybe get your lip, skirts and bottom of your rear bar done in black

only if you do it with a brush.....
Seriously though. Make it a light coat and make sure that its high temperature paint. More paint will reduce the efficiency a little, so the thinner the coat the better.

I think the roof and a few bodykit parts might look pretty cool, I'm personally not a fan of doing the boot and bonnet with that though
