earlier in the year i was rear ended by an old lady and it scuffed up the bumper, never got it fixed and figured id eventually do this....

i used electrical tape to make the proper curves and began sanding, there were 2 dimples from the other cars license plate bolts


all cleaned off ready for more taping


all taped off and covered up


during paint, i used 2 coats of rustoleum black primer, then 2 coats of rustoleum flat black


all done!

-electrical tape, or even a think pinstripe, something thatll curve with the bumper lines
-painters tape, newspaper, tarps etc...
-sand paper, i think i used 200 grit, just enough to rough up the old clear coat
-1 can of black primer, i used rustoleum
-1 can of flat black rustoleum paint, i bought 2 cans incase, only used one

use the paint exactly as instructed and u wont have any problems

took about 3 hours including a trip to the hardware store for supplies

That looks great! I have to ask the wife for permission.

to the guy that asked what was needed. I'd highly rec against 200 grit sand paper. It may turn out ok but it is waaaayy more aggressive than you need. Use like 600-1000 ... get it from ACE..Home Depot and Lowes most likely won't have it.
