Any Bright Ideas ?

Was wondering if anybody new the best paint to use to cover up the nasty yellow that is underneath every bumper on these Mustangs.

I painted it about a year ago with just normal flat black spray paint, but Im wondering if there is anything better that would last longer.

Maybe even a better technique to paint it, maybe just more coats...

Thanks again,
IBS

I went to ford to pick up trim paint , costs about 5 bux and just tape and mask it off the cose areas and then trash bag it up on the car ( i.e. cover the area you are painting with trashbags to prevent overspray.

painting it with a rattle can wont last very long.... the bumpers and side mouldings need to be painted with a spray gun and paint with an added flex agent to prevent cracking...
