Wow man your a youngster I wish I had an Evo @ ur age. Just be careful with that car man its a HUGE responsibility and at ur age u definately have a target on ur back. I'm 20 and I get a lot of evil looks from cops. God bless and be responsible with ur car which I'm pretty sure u are. And remember, EVOS HAVE NOTHING TO PROVE TO ANY HONDAS WE DRIVE $30,000 CARS HAHA. Don't forget to post up them pics of that bumper once its on man.

Its a custom grey i have the mixture of colors needed to make it if you have a shermin williams near you they can mix it for you. When in doubt i could get a small bucket of it so you can paint your bottom half the right color. there you go so you know its NOT BLACK or any of that other crap
"Sherwin Williams" Couldn't resist, I work for the house paint division! Mygood buddy is a auto store manager. House paints can be matched in minutes easily, we use computers. Auto starts with a close color from a fandeck and then custom blend it. Keep in mind that you work in a body shop and wen you make your paint, that's all your doing to start painting, most times your not the only color match they are working on.

If any of you guys need paint from a Sherwin, house or auto, pm me and you will get the employee hookup!

Get that thing painted and up so we can see it. Also has a matte clear on the lower diffuser unlike the rest of the gloss body color.

tell your brother that my birthday is on april 2nd LOL
I would just paint the whole thing if i was you, since you are already painting one part. Its better then masking off the diffuser, and plus the color will match.

You mean paint the diffuser the same color as the rest of the bumper? That wouldn't look very good, imo.

I personally like the two tone look, if you dont like the look of the normal color they all are, then do something else. I'm sure you can pick something out that will look good with your setup.flat black sounds nice!

You should try something different..... Everyone else has the same graphite color bottom on the JDM bumper.
