| I've been contemplating painting some of the plastic parts on my bumpers. Anyone have any suggestions of what paint would hold up best? | |

| Or plasti dip first and see how you like that! It might not last the life of the vehicle, but you can easily retouch any spots that get chipped/faded. It's fun stuff! | |

Just curious, when you repaired it, did you just spray over, or did you actually use the plasti dip thinner that re-liquifies (is that a word?!) it? | |
