The strut brace comes off really easy. 8 fasteners in total... 2 of them are under a small plastic panel by the passenger side windshield wiper arm.
I just wiped the part down with some acetone to remove any oils, laid out a tarp and placed the strut brace on top of 3 blocks of wood.
Spray 3 heavy coats according to the directions on the can and wait... and wait. The directions say wait 48 hours to reassemble parts and they mean it. The finish is still a little pliable and I can tell that if I tried to torque down the bolts right now, the paint will twist and tear.
Ugh... patience.
