Default painted parts of my bumber

So i painted some plastic piecesonmy front bumber this weekend. I think it came out really nice. The project costed around $15.00.

[ul][*]First I removed the front bumber pieces by taking out the pins.[*]Then I washed them with soap and water.[*]I sanded them lightly with 220 Grit sandpaper.[*]I rinsed them off with water again and let them air dry.[*]I applied two coats of black gloss FUSION spray paint...its made for plastic.[*]Then I used chrome polish with the Mothers PowerBall on the chrome bumper.[*]I applied the bumper pieces back on and took some photos for yall.[/ul]
