Painted Undercover

Has anyone painted their undercover tonneau cover? I want to paint mine to match my truck but worried about flaking & chipping. If anyone has any pics of one painted, please post or email them to me.
Thanks

Is it Fiberglass?

If it's fiberglass, ya betta take it to a fiberglass shop, because fiberglass takes special prcoedures for painting, or it'll flake and look like crap.

It's not fiberglass but hard plastic material. Looks good now but better painted I think

I have not been able to find anyone one here that has painted theres. They pretty much had the same concern about the chipping/ flaking due to the texture on the cover.

Talk to a friend who had his painted and they added flex to the paint and it still flaked. It didnt really look that good any way.

Thanks for the info. Do you happen to have any pics of it? The body man at the shop said should be no problem. I went for a 2nd idea but he told me not to do it.
