Installed sum full length subframe connectors today,help of my dad & his friend with a mig welder, and decided to clean it all underneath n just paint it all!I done this bout 5 years ago n went over it again so it would all match. my buddy owns a shop with a lift so i could use it all day today on sunday with them being closed, ill prob take the rear end out this winter and do a full tilt boogie kit and take gas tank out n paint the rest.
Figured it help it from rusting and make it look nice, even though my car never see's rain & is a garage queen.
Just thought id share
now the exhaust needs painted. although does have stainless from mufflers back

Painted mine also. Old pic when I still had Flows. This lift was just for painting, I welded them on the car on a drive on lift.

Not yet, but I'm going to be doing it this winter on jackstands. Up on jack stands and doing it in sections with epoxy.

Looks good by the way, did you brush or spray, and did you scuff and prime first?

I have been researching this for a couple months. My plan is to drop the rear and scuff, wipe down, epoxy prime, epoxy paint.

Supposedly pretty durable stuff and doesnt lock in moisture like an underbody coat. The car is light duty, so I think it will be sufficient protection for my needs.

I also like your color choice. I think this way if you start to get a problem area it is visable, where black or dark colors might hide it.

Nice color choice #694. I was thinking of going similar.

Looks really good! Nice work on the undercarriage, too.

another option if it still looks good, is to apply a heavy clear coat.
