Paint! Looks a bit dull but shining off the gun. Door jam gives better indication. Pic taken late afternoon.

Yes, this is the base coat to cover up the grey primer. I'm so happy it's got a shine to it as it's showing up bits I missed. A few more spot pimple and rashes repairs and it will be ready for top coat.

Electric cars are external combustion engines, they're just moving the problem upstream. Plants actually grow better with more CO2 in the air. There's a whole can of worms to explore.
