I painted my front bumper with just plain semi flat black krylon or
something, after cleaning it well (alcohol wash last) 20 months ago when
I first mounted some fog lights. I did this off the car. Did the whole
bumper, plastic front, metal top and bottom, plastic ends. It is still
holding up. Amazing.
