Painting Plastic bumpers with Spray Paint?

[E30Hooligan]

Just like the title says, has anyone painted their plastic pumpers with spray paint. How'd it come out? or is this question a joke. just picked up a set of plastic bumpers from my local pick your part and I'm undecided oh my plans for repainting them. All postive feedback welcome, thanks guys.

Yea, decent. Think it was krylon fushion but I am going to redo it soon in flat black, the whole front end will be flat (kidneys, valance and lip) Should look ok once I clean up the trim and kidneys.

its not a joke its just a prep time thing. if youre really prepared to do a good job sanding/cleaning, primering a bunch, wetsanding, painting, wetsanding, clear, more wetsand then polish/wax you can expect good results. honestly its mostly a patience thing as opposed to money/super-human-painting-skills to get these to turn out well on your own. give it try i say; worst thing is you get it painted professionally and it wont be very expensive

I recommend using some self-etching primer, as it will adhear much better than other primers.
