hey guys. my rear bumper, spoiler, and front lip are all badly faided on my black s13. i want to paint them but im not sure what kind of paint to use. my brother just did his bumpers on his 85 accord with thta new paint for plastic, it came out great. i dont know if i should try that or regular spray paint.

with just spray paint you won't get a glossy shine... it'll be very flat. I have a friend who painted his spoiler with spray paint and it looked decent and relatively unnoticable from far away or in poor lighting, but you could easily tell up close.
