watup, now my ride is serrano red color, and on the front bumper there is a little bit of black on top of the center opening. the bumper would look a lot better if that shit matched, and same with the foglight covers.

i went to the zone yesterday and they are dumbasses, didnt have a big selection, and i figured i should consult with da crew 1st!


so what kinda paint should i hookup to do this?? have any of u dont it before to serrano red?

gracias onda hooks

thats not your car dood :)

hehe...nah see...u gotta be careful yo. Remember bugs and deer and armadillos and people are gonna be hitting that front bumper man. It will chip and look like azzho after a while. If it aint broke...dont fix it! :) Or, get a new kit for the front.

Ya I repainted everything on my stock front end the same color as my car...but I had it done when the entire bumper was painted so it would match...just wet sand with 400 grit sandpaper, and then you might want to primer it, then paint. I didn't primer first though, but it was painted by the body shop using PPG paint...

I had a few scratches near the bottom of my bumper that were there when I bought it and one day while waiting in line at the parts store, I glanced over and saw some touch up paint in a spray can. Since it was the bottom of the bumper I figured what the hell.... matched pretty good so I masked off the black part and did that too. Can't even tell it's not the same since it's kind of "seperate".

Thank GOD that GAP is FINALLY GONE!!!!!
