yeah... it took couple hours... masking everything, spraying layers after layers (i have around 5 good layers)
masking and waiting for the paint to dry between layers took most of the time...

thanks, i used bumper and trim spray paint. i got one that can resist high temp, because it get really hot around the exhaust tips after a drive.
hmmm... maybe i shouldve took pictures and done a DIY post...

Awesome job! I am thinking about doing this to my DG coupe. I couldn't tell from the pic but I wanted to know if you used glossy or flat black? Also, is there any way to remove that piece and then paint it? Thanks for the info. Looks good!

i used gloss black. i was going to paint it w/ flat black, but people told me it would look better w/ gloss, so i went w/ it. and it does look good! haha! you cant remove that piece, our bumpers are 1 piece. yeah, it wouldve been alot easier if its removable..
this was the 2nd time i sprayed my car. 1st time was painting the brake calipers. its really easy. mistake lotta ppl make is over spray. you want to paint it lil by lil, or else, you will end up getting bumps, drip marks, etc.
