[QUOTE="65x2, post: 15350989, member: 67019"] The paint isn't crazy expensive for E9. I'm looking at 16.09 for 4 ounces of base. My computer isn't showing a price on the midcoat. But its just a clear adjuster with three solid red toners in Nexa. I'd guess less than 40$ in paint. Looks like the paint is peeling from the pictures, poor prep and/or lack of adhesion promoter. I'd take it off, blow all the paint off and water sand the remainder smooth and go from there. E9 doesn't match for shit. If it were my car, I'd have the entire bumper painted and either blend it out into the bumper or if the bumper wasn't in that great of shape, carry it into the fenders. Depends on what you're looking for as far as quality. You can also take your car to a jobber or a body shop that has a camera, have them snap a couple pics and see what codes it pulls other than E9. Edit: if the camera isn't calibrated or well taken care of it won't help you much. Before you get anything painted, you can ask for a spray out of the color selected to see if it's even something you're going to be satisfied with. May take a couple shops but you'll find one eventually. A jobber will help you out no problems so long as you buy the paint from them [/QUOTE]
