Hey I don't want to feel left out. I did mine too. But unlike the OP, I sanded all the parts that were gonna get hit by paint. I did use automotive paint. Just waiting on my black keypad so I can apply a clear coat. Its a flat black

Just wondering how the OP paint job is holding up since the thread was started over a month ago? any scratches/chips etc?
a couple month afterwards, paint still holding up great on the front. but on the back battery cover there are fading, but no scracthes. it's still black ,but u can see some wear since the phone is constantly on it's back so the battery cover takes a beating. front cover is holding up great, still glossy
flat black is possible, a couple members on here have done that actually. mines originally was flat black, but i found that it was lacking protection, it was easily scratched and it didnt feel as good to the touch. so i cleared coated it for protection and as a result it was also "glossed" up
