trueblue01bullitt · October 18th, 2009, 08:01 AM

okay i asked on another thread but no one answered so i will start my own, that middle part between the exhaust tips can u paint that?? or is there like a decal or something to put in there bcuz i like that look and if you can paint it should you have a professional do it or is it a DIY kinda deal, THANX

it can be painted, but to do it right requires the whole bumper do be done. you can use vinyl to black it out as well.

trueblue01bullitt · October 18th, 2009, 09:14 AM

do you know of anywhere to get the vinyl for it

BakerFX4 · October 18th, 2009, 12:12 PM

i bought the vinyl but did NOT like the shinyness. so i just taped it off, scuffed it up(scuff pad), and sprayed it with flat black. I also sprayed the "glossy" mustang letters before i put them in the bumper and my trunk panel so that it would all match and be the same flat black.

i just taped off around the area that you see, used gray scotch brite scuff pad, and sprayed with a flat black color that came in a can. Been like that for about 2 years now with no problem. Prior to the painting i sprayed some adhesion promoter (bulldog) to ensure there would be no problem with peeling and shit. So far so good after 2 years!

awesome brother thanx thats exactly the look i want and i got that same blackout peice ordered for the rear thanx man thats what i am going to do

BakerFX4 · October 18th, 2009, 01:19 PM

no prob bro! If your going to do the lettering too, then leave it on the wax paper when you paint it. Make sure it all matches. You dont want 2 or 3 different blacks. Looks kinda tacky. Let me know if you have any other questions.
