The project car looks ok but its going to be about 6 different colors until I get to paint. Would it be ok to spray some of the areas of my black car with black primer spray paint, specifically my whole rear bumper? Or would that just be extra work down the road for whoever paints the car?

Primer comes off pretty easily, but it would be a bit extra work.. NBothing too serious tho. Remember, primer is porus, so don't have just primer over bare metal... it will rust.

extra work down the road, but if the bumper isnt painted with something, the UV rays will ruin the plastic.....
