Looks good. Where do you get your plasti dip from?

Got the paint from super cheap auto...it's called: Dupli-colour Custom Wrap. Also got Septone Plastic Adhesion Primer so it bonds better.

The plastic primer is for the bare plastic prior to painting, although it is still an adhesion promoter

Try painting a front lip without plastic primer - even with special bumper paint with "excellent adhesion" - it won't stick for shit, you need to prime it. Plastidip over the top of paint, just clean it with wax and grease remover.
