and repainted my whole front bumper:


paint is off... but white is supposedly really hard to match.

p.s. It is with a rattle can lol.

 

Looks pretty good man!

 

It's a tad lighter, but a good job overall.

 

D'amn, a rattle can did that?! What did you use to clearcoat? Any chipping?

 

WOW! any way you could do a how to for this?? how is it holding up??

 

thanks for the compliments

well, let me give it some time and then we will see how the paint holds up and what not. These are expenisve rattle cans (minus the clearcoat). I had a shop mix it for me and they used PPG. For 2 stages (base and pearl) in a quart each, the paint is $160 and then I used plasticoat clear coat and a lot of wetsanding.

 

^^ Correct me if I'm wrong, but can't you have the bumper profressionally painted for not much more than that?

 

You can, but where is the fun in that? Actually, the paint that used was about 1/2 pint of each and total materials was like $80. I should have bought a whole quart though since I am thinking of doing my kit.
