I was thinking of covering my tan up with black. Let me know what you come up with!

How about black vinyl? A good sign shop should have about 300 different colors of vinyl and I am SURE they can find a black to match. I'd check that first and see if they could do it for maybe a couple hundred as opposed to the $1000+ it would cost for paint.

Sign vinyl wont work...I tried this a few weeks ago and it looked like crap.. you need vinyl automotive wrap it's little bit more.. I will have some picks by next weekend getting my bumpers wrapped just waiting for them to receive my special order

That's what I meant. However, in my area sign shops are also the ones who do vinyl automotive wraps. Sorry for the confusion....
