are you serious? canadian tire has chrome linings for lancers? is it like a special order?

 

After using this....can you put a clear coat on it so it can shine...or is this some high gloss spray?

 

u can clear coat it to make it shine yea.. but i sorta like the matt black look =P

 

Nice...

 

lol no silly, it is not on special order, it has been around for ages
just go to the automotive section and look/ask for where they stock chrome strips

 

^^ Ditto. It's just chrome trim, not made for any specific car though I believe it's a shatty-*** Honda on the packaging LOL

 

I did my bumper today, and oh boy, it wasn't an easy job. I messed up the tape too on the first coat on the left side of the nose - it overlaps the border by a lil bit. On the upper right tho, that's where I messed up pretty bad. I tripped again and ludged forward (I'm clumsy like that!) which resulted to a small smear like coat. Oh, and on the top part too, I placed the tape too close. You can still see red paint between the grille and the bumper. I was too lazy to re-do it again not to mention freakin' hot outside (which really didn't help btw, coz the plasti dip dries up pretty fast so I gotta remove the tape right after I sprayed it!). I'll do it some other time plus I think I'm out of plasti dip anyway.

Oh and the hole plug from HD won't push thru all the way. I have no luck with this, whatsoever!

 

^^ You can always just vinyl it...haha Lotsa people do it that way. (mine was done that way till I crashed my car and it ripped in a few spots)

 

^I had vinyl before, but from some reason it was short by an inch on 4 sides. We stretched the sh*t outta it but we only managed to pull half an inch on all sides. I looked decent tho with the chrome grille and stuff but when I painted my grill, I felt like I need to do my bumper too since the red body color stands out more with everything black surrounding it. I might just re-do it some other time - gotta find a can of plasti dip first.

does dirt stick to your bumper pretty fast? Mine has wood dust all over it from when I picked up the hole plugs from Home Depot..lol

 

maybe i should paint my car yellow with the yellow version.

lol a rubber car

bad *** lol

 

^Stop gettin ideas an ragin on the yellow car.

I finally decided to fillin the bumper holes today and re vinyl. Did I mention I hate rattle cans?

 

why dont you just buy the tub and get a air gun for spraying it on. lol will that even work?

 

sure, but clean up will be a *****, plus might have to buy a new hose and valve and nozzle..lol

 

Ok i've called few home hardware and they are all out.

 

^ did you call the one in Ajax (Harwood and 401) across the library? That's where I got mine. But I think I picked up the last one - which clearly means, I can't re-do my bumper! sux!
