Old bumper off:
Left bumper bracket got a little messed up, pretty typical to see:
Frame side tab straightened back:

New bumper and end caps on, fitment checked, looks good!

First coat of color, notice that it doesn't completely cover everything, just enough that it will stick and not run, the first coat should always be light, then when its good and tacky you can shoot your next coat.
Second coat, first 100% coverage:
Third coat 100% coverage:
First coat of clear, one again very light and grainy, enough that you get the clear to stick(clear loves to run), and when its good and tacky you can lay top your full coats:
Second coat of clear 100% coverage:
Closeup of end cap:
