    Paint my lowers

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I don't want to change the color, but my black lowers are getting scratched and turning dull black.....what do you all recommend I use to touch them up so they look nice and black again?

    I was thinking just a standard black spray can but I wasn't sure if somebody here found something better to use that was a better close to factory.

    thanks

    Get this stuff at your local automotive store or walmart called Back to Black, it will make it look new.

    Yeah I've already got that and used it......my issue is some spots are like almost white, I assume from sun / road salt damage.......I just applied another coat of back to black and it does work, but the white spots are still lighter......that's why I was asking about the paint

    no my actual lowers, like the black part below the front bumpter.....if it's nice out tomorrow I'll take pictures to post.....but I live in NY so there is a ton of road salt in the winter, just eats cars up
