Default front end returns

after an incident with a rock and 80mph that shattered the paint on my front fascia, my front end is finally repainted with a custom rubberized paint and returns to my stang. Ill put pics up tomorrow.

the paint i got was underbody coating i think.. it looks good bc my car is black but i believe you can paint this to whatever color you want. it gives a rougher finish not the smooth look like paint and clearcoat but with my lowered bumper if i hit a bump and the plastic flexes the paint wont crack... or if something hits my bumper.. like the rock that hunted me down at 80mph, the paint wont shatter... i dont know how this coating would look painted but the can of stuff was only ten bucks so maybe you could try it on some piece of wood or something to see how it looks... ill throw some more pics of the bumper and the rest of my car up tomorrow

05 nightrider, ime sry i dont mean to start a fight here but that looks VERY bad imo. You should take your stripe off, that might help a little!

Yeah... It's your car, so do whatever you like, but I think the paint job on that fascia looks really atrocious. There's no beating the glossy look.
