the rear bumper was toast on mine when I got it, I painted it and did the CETA mod before I ever put it on the car.

By the way how are you guys getting those big pics in the post, Mine are thumbnails that click to enlarge..

i dont know why they are so small. but i used krylon fusion. the cap doesnt say but it is shiny so im guess gloss. after it dried its about semi-gloss. i wanted to apply clearcoat to give it shine but testing the clear-it came out milky/with a glaze so i decided not to do it and just wetsanded with 2000.
