Default My gas grill rebuild!

Hey everyone, thought you might like to hear about my new project. Im in the process of rebuilding my old 'free' gas grill. ive gotten it taken apart and I am planning on rebuilding it with a custom touch. The list of things i want to go are as follows:
1. new burner
2. new *****
3. new temp gauge
4. New rubber lawnmower tires for that offroad look we all love, sorry im not 'dropping' my grill!
5. I plan on cleaning and refinishing the wood planks.
6. Last, but not least i will be repainting the frame and the grill itself.

Heres my question, I dont want to go with a normal coat of shiney black paint and I was wondering if truck liner paint is heat resistant enough for this application? if not i am just going to paint it flat black. boo.

Any ideas or suggestions would be aprrectiated, hopefully it will be ready by the 4th and i can get some pics!

Bedliner is definitely not heat resistant enough. There are several high temp paints available in a variety of colors though!

Paint it black and orange two tone with engine block paint, that would be sick.
