Default How much do I need?
Thinking of buying a new front and rear bumper and painting them myself. How many 12 oz spray paint cans would I possibly need to do this? I'm gonna order from Automotive Touchup.

IF it was an EF with oem black bumpers, not color matched, then I would understand painting them.

I had a DC5 but had to sell it due to insurance. I'm driving an EJ6 coupe. It's going to be cheaper than taking it to a paint shop, unless I can find these same parts in good condition.
