Ultrex lip?

lol just rub some tyre shine on it (bird told me this) and be done with it.

Even if you paint it a nice black, it will scrape on everything and be covered in insects within a week anyway...

I have the autoglym gel...it's a good product for sure, but I have also found that the meguires trim detailer is better on my front lip - seems to last longer between reapplication.

Its a lip its meant to take the scrapes instead of the bumper so doesn't have to look the best so spray paint from malz $5 and go nuts with it

Did mine with $5 matte black spray paint. Then put a few sprays of an automotive acrylic clear spray over the top. Cheap as chips and shouldn't go shitty and fade because of the clear coat, and will be a bit more resistant to light scratches etc...

You can ask Bird about this. He seems to use that for everything black around his car
