I just got a little behind it so that it'd be black with the license plate on. I'll probably get that after anouther coat or two.

Yeah it's easy to do it with the bumper still attached, as long as you're super careful about overspray obviously. lol

Yeah, I did it with plastidip to see if I like it. I do, so when the plastidip starts to tear I'll rip the whole thing off and paint it flat black.

Nice thing about plastidip is that overspray can just be wiped off
Not that I oversprayed...

Either way, you can post it here or wherever.

I just peeled the tape off after about 5 minutes, it left clean cut lines. I need to go ahead and give it a second coat though.
