so as everyone im sure knows, the front bumpers love to spider crack over the years and how unappealing it is. i was wondering if anyone has gone through this and if it is just an easy job to sand it down and repaint it, or buy a new bumper cover? i already repainted a small area of the back bumper and it was sanded and repainted and came out great, i just dont know if it will be the same for the entire front. any suggestions?

 

I shot bulldog on all my plastics before I painted. Turned out great. It is an adhesion promoter. So it always the paint to flex with the plastic. I have yet to see spider cracks.

 

If you own or have access to an air compressor you can buy a decent spray gun from harbor freight for as little as $20, do yourself a favor and use properly mixed automotive paint with flex additive and you'd be surprised how well it can be done with just a little work. Even without a gun some places will mix paint for you and put it in spray cans, with a little skill you can get pretty good results.
