I was thinking of anything else that I can have painted Atomic Orange with any extra paint they may have left from my repairs. Any ideas out there?

Good idea. I'll see what I can get done gratis and/or for rock bottom price and then I'll post the results once the car is repaired. My car has an appointment with the plastic surgeon on Monday at 7:30 AM when the body shop opens.
