As im not having much look finding a pre 97 bumper sprayed in black. How hard is it to spray a bumper that is white at the moment ?

Its easy, just key the bumper up with some fine wet and dry (use it wet) then take your time spraying it, dont put too much paint on at once. Im presuming your considering using cans, It will never look perfect but it will be miles better than driving around with a white bumper on a black car.
