Default Subframe paint?

I sandblasted a rusty subframe I plan to install. I used a can of good etching primer, then laid some dupli color sandable primer over the top. I'm wondering if that primer job is adequate to paint over. Also, what paint would you recommend for the top coat?

Sandblast/powder coat = cheap easy/perfect


(Look in the phone book)

^X2 The paint will not hold up over time no matter how well you lay it down.
