anyone done this?? pics??

hey all, been thinking about blacking out the lower center section my front bumper. from what i have read, the sticker is a PITA. so i'm left with spray paint black or i'm thinking about spray on bedliner. kind of leaning towards the bed liner. give it a more rugged look. anyone done this? post some pics!

Looks perty sweet.

 

it was really easy. to be sure the paint stuck good i scuffed it up a bit with sand paper. it held up good till i took my bumper off

 

Looks like you have a camber issue...LOL

 

I posted up in the XR section looking for one but nobody's PM'd me yet

 

hahahaha yeah, just a bit. busted UCA, it turned out to be a real fun day!

Mine is vinyl wrapped. As well as my fenders. I like it and it stays on even on off road trips.

Very nice!!! ^^^

 

I painted my center bumper with a textured paint. It is very similar to bed liner but it sprays on a lot easier and evenly. I have also used this same paint on my grille emblem and pinch welds and have absolutely no chipping. This stuff holds up well! I am going to use this paint on a few other things that need a good tough/durable paint.

Here's my how to: http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/2nd-gen-tacomas/52134-painted-my-center-bumper.html#post930588

Rust-Oleum Multi Color Textured Paint (also comes in black)

 

thanks for all the help fella's! as soon as i return from work, i'm going to do it, with either duplicolor spray on bed liner (i've used it before) or the textured paint from rustoleum. thanks again!

 

The vinyl wasn't really that bad. Took an hour or so. And it's easy to remove if I get tired of it.

 

thanks KPT! i'll keep that in mind.still gonna be a day or so b/f i get home. still thinking about it.
