I think it ended up being 2 quarts... 

It was a lot of coats, if I recall correctly something like the below:
1 coat sealer
2 coats primer
1 coat white
3 coats green
2 coats pearl
3 coats clear

I'd take what a rabbit says with a pinch of salt, or alternatively I'd take the rabbit with a pinch of salt and maybe a bit of garlic.

Nice score on the nose cone!

Have you priced those other 2 pieces new from your dealer VP? I think those are both pretty inexpensive pieces??
