davea180 Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) I have a 2014 SXT with an aluminum colored area at the lower lip of the front bumper. I would prefer it to be a flat or satin black color. Can anyone recommend a brand or type of paint I can do this with? Also, I want to put red pinstripes on my black paint (should look good). I was thinking 3M brand on Amazon or something like that. Do they still have good products or is there another brand to look at? Thanks in advance.

apellefigliodapollo Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 You should use Plastidip or Foliatec it's easy to apply and REMOVABLE, just in case... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobitz68 Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 I did my front bumper with Plastidip. Looks great and was easy to do. Plus, like apellefigliodapollo stated, it is removable if you ever decide you want to remove it. The bumper will look exactly like it does now. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davea180 Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) Thanks all for the replys. I will go with Plastidip, seems fairly simple according to their website. I also decided on 3M Burgundy double pinstripes. Should look good when finished. I just set up a Photobucket account so I will take some pics for you also.
