Painting frnt bumper

Ive seen people cover this area (see pic.) with vinyl and for some reason im not liking that idea. I was wondering if any one has painted this themselves. I was thinkin about using "SEM" flex primer and "SEM" flex satin black. Anyone done this? Whatcha think?

thats some awesome photoshopping you did there

(mspaint maybe?)

 

Nice truck. any rock chip probs. yet?

how did you do the lights? looks good.

 

ha. thanks. not to computer savoy. im sure there is somethin on this pc that will do a better job but i wouldnt know how to use it.

 

Ron (Edrin) did his with bedliner. He's kinda addicted to bedlining EVERYTHING

 

Nope, still no chips! Lights are nice, they are just laminex vinal covers. I would recommend buying fogs with a yellow lens instead though. They bubble after a while.

 

Personally I kind of think the one in the link looks like a pirate, between the bug deflector and the blacked out lower... goate and a mustache? am I the only one seeing that?

 

The center valence cover? How much does one of those set you back?
