KENT!!! let me know where you go, like if its a national paint place *like macco), post how much it costs, because i have to buy a new bumper, and if i get a primed one or a different color, ill need to get it re painted.

Btw no prob. I was interested in the color coding anyways.

Rob, I'm having my daughters auto class paint the hood and front bumper, all I have to buy is the color and clear. The shop covers the reducers, hardener and other shop supplies! I don't expect perfection just fresh color because the hood and bumper is peeling and makes the car look like crap! I think it's a sweet deal! :lol:
