    Nice job! I have thought about doing this but either having it line-x'ed at a shop or doing it myself with the rattle can bedliner. What do you think?

    Looks great...would actually love to see a pic about 10 feet away or so. I think the Satin is the best choice. The problem with flat and outside cars is it does not stand up to UV and fades quickly. It's also the hardest to touch up. I was going to do my OE wheels flat and the painter gave me a lecture on not using flat for exposed surfaces.

    I seriously want to paint mine but wonder how durable a rattle can bed liner paint would be.

    Tr3nt on here did his with the 3M Rubberized Coating so that might help give you an idea of what it will look like. I think he started a thread on it. If not I could try and get some pics of it for you.

    i painted mines like the OP, i used krylon fusion paint for plastics then hit it with a few coats of krylon crystal clear flat. so far so good, painted it about 2 months ago.

    militaco, your "super white" looks more "super white" than mines haha

    PaintedBumper2_17aa1fc64feea60d1d1060831c7c8e5e03f80348.jpg

    i think going flat black will make it match better with the grill.
