If you're going to take it somewhere, I wouldn't prep it. My body man is very picky and likes to do all prep work himself.

 

that gt bumper looks clean greg

 

do you have a paint gun? where did you get it if you do and how much was it. i might be gettin the mach 1 hood soon..maybe...and if i could i would paint it myself.

 

When you ordered from bumpers.com, did the paint exactly match? What color is your car?

 

my paint code is e9 which is laser red, and the paint is exactly the same looks like the orignal bumper!

 

How long does the whole painting it yourself process take?

 

well you have to put normally three coats of paint and a clear coat so around about 3 days im guessing

i lovvvve the dark green.
if you don't like it then i'll take it

 

i doubt it should take that long. the prep will take the longest-cleaning, sanding, cleaning, primer, another coat ormaybe 2 of primer, maybe a very light sand if you want. the actual painting wont take too long. you dont have to wait a day for it to dry each time. depeding on the paint, its usually a lot less than an hour between coats.
