so I bought some of the paint I wanted to try...its the summit branded BC/CC paint. (rebranded kirker). Stuff shoots pretty nice...I've shot Dupont and PPG before...
So as a test, I painted the back bumper to see how it layed down. The color is called Carbon Fiber Metallic. Its actually a bit darker than it shows in the pictures

probably a month to 6 wks before I get to the rest of it...I need to finish up the fabwork in the engine bay. This was more of a test to 1. see if the paint layed nice, 2. see if I liked the color...

I wetsanded out some imperfections, buffed those areas and put my customized wing supports, push/pull switch grommet, marker lights and tag back on...I call the rear bumper pretty much done!
