Default I custom painted my bumper.....thoughts...

Well long story short.....I removed my Plastic front end grill to paint it black...

I did.....

Couldn't put it back on without removing the entire bumper. So I said forget it.

I bought a rattle can of black, clear, and ordered a white camaro decal.

Painted it black, put on the decal, clear coated it. Looks pretty good I think.

The reason I just didn't leave it white, was because when I removed the grill, the paint was all chipped and worn, so it didn't look good.

What ya guys think?

That does look good indeed. If the holes were filled it would be perfect.
