Got my rear bumper back

[2010 Infantry Vet]

Painter dropped off my bumper today, turns out, he airbrushes and does custom paint jobs on Harleys. This paint job is so nice, I dont even wanna put it on my truck now! Only charged me $250.
This is replacing my rear chrome bumper to make JB1 happy. Lol
Ill take a pic of it on the truck tomorrow.

I'm late to the party. Did it start out as a chrome bumper?

No Haha. JB1 told me I need to replace my rear chrome bumper with a painted black one. I had already ordered it, was just waiting for it to get back from paint.
Chrome bumper is coming off tomorrow.

What color was it before it was painted or was it black already and he did some custom artwork on it?

It was a new primered steel dual exhaust bumper. He does custom paint work on harley davidsons.

Something tells me the picture doesn't do it justice. Bet it looks wicked out in the sun.

Brother, once i put it on the truck, I wanted to take it back off. So damn shiny, and truck is normal.
We talked today about him wet sanding and buffing the whole truck.
This pic i took when the sun was going down, facing the front of thd truck. After i taped off the chrome emblems, and black plastipipped them. Weather was 20 degrees, so i let the paint can sit in the sink with hot water.
Il post a pic of ther rear tailgate tomorrow."

I hate it when that happens. Looks good in the pic though. Hopefully a wet sand and polish will stop the bumper from standing out so much. At least if he cuts too deep he's more than qualified to re clear the paint.
