save up and take it to a shop that can do it right the first time

 

im thinking in doing that !

 

just FYI... i got my bumper from klumyzee (top quality, i'd highly recommend it) and because of the way it is shipped, my body guy insisted that the bumper should be installed and be on the car for a few days before painting it (allowing it enough time to 'mold' to the car and fully expand)... after a few days, he uninstalled it and painted it, the end product looks great (as close to OEM color as i could ever expect and amazing fitment)...

 

I just had mine painted today. The shop let it sit out for a few days to fully expand. They did a fit test and everything looked great. The edges needed some sanding and it is in raw form so there is a lil prepping needed.

 

I painted my body kit for about......$220. That includes paint and my new HVLP spray gun. The kit came out damn good...until the end when I got impatient. Little over spray but nothing major.
