Be Honest. I can handle the truth. It only cost me $12 so I'm not out a huge loss.

I think it looks good. It really helps the pontiac lettering stand out. Nicely done :thumbup:

Thanks, your sig wasn't posted, so i didn't know what they were :)
Im going to paint mine someday, as i need to get the bumper painted anyways. Might was well see how it looks, for $12 can't go wrong.

It is a semi-gloss. We looked in a paint book & SOME GM bumper was painted that color at one point in time. Not sure what it went on, but something GM made was that color. Reason it was $12 is b/c thats what the materials cost. it wasnt spray paint.
Thanks for the compliments everyone!

Dan, I like it...But, since we talked Saturday AM, I had the pre info that it was happening...;) I gotta be honest tho, I HATE those Dynomax tips...I caught so much hell for the 2 days they were on Tiff's car before the Magnaflow tips arrived:sillyme: They look like Travel coffee mugs to me:dunno:
Anyway, I love the black inlay on your car- My WS6 is black, there, too...:lol:

Doesn't that yellow anniversary Firebird have a black bumper painted like that? I have a black WS6 too so I'm a shoe-in for a compliment.
