I agree with PT. Too much paint will look like too much paint. Plus, since we are talking about Hondas here, paint will add a lot of weight. 7 coats of clear and say 4 coats of color (numbers that have been suggested) and a coat or two of primer is probably a good 30 pounds or so. And a lot of it will end up on the roof.
