Ready for those pictures.
I have been wanting black bumpers myself and I really like the OEM bumpers so I didn't want any covers. Tried some paint and it chipped, but I never thought to powder coat them.

How glossy/black are they compared to the body paint?

That looks good, just like paint. We have psyho soccer moms with minivans of death around here so this makes keeping the stock bumpers much more appealing. Can
PC be paint matched?

Wow. That looks really good. A lot more reflective than I thought. Definitely going to have to look into doing this.

you dont paint the powder...you can get almost any color powder you can think of. the common colors (black, white, silver) are the easiest to match. i painted the grill, the upper cap, and bottom valence black to match.

i also bought that lower extension from the dealer for 35 bucks and painted it as well. i love the look. i had the SS bumper on there before but wanted a more stock look. this fits the bill.

That looks great and knowing that it's more durable than paint has to be a major bonus.
