    Yep Unfortunately it is another painted bumper thread.

    I had got ran off the road over the winter and had to have another bumper put on and painted. Well the Tard that painted it painted the lower valence a different color than the rest of the car. He painted it silver instead of the Bronze Mist that it was and it just looked off, especially in the sunlight. So I decided to do something about it.

    Decided to go with Black from Rustoleum Plastic Coat. I'm gonna do the rear as well but don't have the time right now. But IMO it looks much better.


    Also Don't mind the lack of Fog lights. Owner prior used the fake HID's and they melted the covers so I gotta find some at the junk yard next time I go.

    Also gonna paint the grills to bring the color back and make them match

    Before:



    And yes those are old Brake discs. Hell get's the car an extra 4 inches with out having to bust out the Jack and stands



    Primed 2 coats



    3 or so coats of Paint. Tried with clear but it didn't look right so I left it without. Doesn't require clear anyways



    And the finished product
