Nice. Your avatar is too ------- big, change it. Also, is that a showoff bumper?

Looks nice. What kind of paint did you use?

You should paint that exhaust manifold cover too

i know my avatar pic is too big, I don't know how to change it to be smaller. And yes, it's a Showoff 3 front bumper. For starters I put paint stripper all over it to get that black crap off, then sanded it with 150 grit paper, wax and grease remover all over it, then...Sprayed some paint adheasive stuff, called Bull Dog, and then painted it with just car paint,the same stuff I painted my car with, then cleared it.
