because you can't match anything but brand brand new paint 100% colors fade after a few months, plus the new has a real clear on it, and the paint is thicker, the stock has maybe 1 or 2 thin coats of clear

Deer whistles are completely useless.

Several years ago, the North Carolina Highway Patrol put deer whistles on half their cruisers, all throughout the state. After 3 years, they analyzed the data, and found absolutely no significant difference when comparing the cruisers with the deer whistles and the cruisers without. The number of incidents, and the severity of the incidents were identical.
