as title, i currently have unpainted gsi bumpers on my nova. for the past few days ive been thinking about painting them a dark grey shade, something similar to the original grey colour the bumpers come, can anyone give me suggestions as to what shade of grey to paint them, pics would also be an advantage aswell thanks
