Its Mr Yum Yum

Hello, I need to paint my front bumper and spoiler. The bumper and spoiler are original. But the bumper has a few scratches and same with the spoiler. Nothing too major, but I know its there and it just bothers me. Does anyone know where I might be able to find some Rio Red E8 flex agent spray paint to touch it up?

I have a 99 red 35th anniversary mustang, I looked where the car info is, and under the Exterior paint it says "E8".

you may be able to buy E8 pre mixed with flex agent from a loacal auto body supply store. search ' finishmaster' in your area. they are good

there isn't any around me. I'm afraid to just do a regular sand down, primer, and gloss red paint. Because I don't want an obvious difference..

I did my own prep work for my hood and front bumper, then a local guy applied 2 coats of color and one coat of clear for $150.... Looks amazing again.

Rio Red is a hard color to match because of sun fade, doing it yourself as a first time is not something that I would suggest because if the scratches bother you now, tiger stripes will kill you.

If you want to practice you can grab a couple damaged body parts from your local wrecking yard, usually free if its mangled, then work on your skills on that part to get a feel for it.

Otherwise paying someone to do it will come out better and most front bumpers that old need a complete make over because of all the rock chips.
