    Looks really good.
    I painted mine black last year.

    Problem is they keep chipping from road debris.
    I need some real auto paint.

    yes I taped my entire front bumper off because I was scared to pull them. I did 1 coat of primer then about 3 coats of some blue caliper paint I had left so it would match. It has held up fairly well against rock chips, I do have a few though.

    But great job on yours, they will really look good when you get them in the sunlight.

    If I was to do it from scratch again, I would probably use Plasti-dip as a primer coat.
    Lay down a few coats then whatever paint over it.
    I would think it would be more impact resistant.
    One of the only useful ways to use it, besides coating wires.

    I am going to let mine sit for a week before doing anything the paint I used says atleast 7 days before full strength is gained aslo there is like 10 coats or more of paint along with 6-7 coats of gloss so id bet its pretty strong althought plasti dip is awesome and highly durable

    Well I just finsihed putting on the SPO grills. I did need apoxy to get them secured properly as they were missing some tabs no big deal though. You can see the apoxy a bit one the left grill. Not to bad though I am very happy with how they came out here are some photos

    Look Good
    I used black rtv for the very same reason.
    Problem is getting them out. I'll have to deal with them in place for touch-ups.

    Those do look nice especially on your color of car. Now you just need that SPO spoiler to go with them!
