It doesnt matter if you spray the entire car. It peels right off. You cant **** anything up other than your line job.

Key is, take it off while its still wet. DO NOT LET IT DRY. I did both the top and bottom grill this way and it came out fine both times. I worked my way from the middle of the bumper to the outside. I did a few coats in the middle of the bumper FIRST, then did the edges where the tape was LAST, then pulled the tape off. Voila! Easy as cake.

Autozone doesn't carry this. The only thing they spray similar to this is a rubber spray paint for like bed liners....
