Opinion on front bumper paint mod
So I'm going to get my front bumper painted finally. Last year after the Ocean City meet, I go to the car wash and got the sprayer too close to what I thought was a BUG, turned out it was a rock chip and ripped a patch off my front bumper.
So this is how my car sits right NOW.:

I made a sig (my current sig, but if it changes later it'll still be here in this post) so anyway, I made a sig with the "EVO KIA WINDSTAR" mod, the XBar painted black and the license plate "plugs" patched up.

So then I was thinking what about the fog lights too.

I've seen it somewhere before (I think) but I was wondering which one you guys think I should get.
Open to ANYTHING!

what is plasti-dip, and is it permanent? I like the fogs painted like that. I was thinking of doing that to mine eventually, as well as the bottom of the headlights up to the curves on the hood. Evo mod belongs on this car....just saying.
That looks like hell! Sorry, but the fog light paint doesn't work with the lines on the car at all.
Ultimately, you're the one that has to drive it though. So whatever works for you!

I know, I attempted to fix it today, and I failed. CLeaned it up and am going to leave it to the professionals.
It's just a can of rubberized coating that you can peel of. There was some overspray (it was pretty windy out this morning) and i was just rubbing it off the car lol.

I was looking at the bumper lines and then the lines on the inner part of each headlight, and they seem to be the same angles going INn toward the center of the bumper.

The shade of the plastidip is also too dark. In your chops the black is more gunmetal grey, which looks good with your car. The lighter greyish black works better and matches your grille better too.
