I am so scared that I will mess-up my car paint the reason why I tend to seek help from a pro.

I use the old favorite line.......... "since you will have the paint in the gun already do you think you could squirt a couple coats on my_____" works every time

Beware getting your front bumper painted. The factory paint is stronger than when You have a shop do it. I would highly suggest getting a clear bra after you get it painted. I live in Jersey and had to paint my front bumper twice. It was initially done because a brake drum on a truck exploded and it ripped up my bumper. Had it repainted 2 years later because of all of the rock chips. Makes me sick to see all of the chips. Roads in this state SUCK. Had it painted again this summer because of more rock chips but paid an extra 500 for an expel clear bra to be installed.

Problem here is the clear bra would be tore apart and Id still need to spend the same amount to get it fixed. When I purchased her at the beginning of 2019, the front bumper was perfect. She had 50Kish miles. Now at 90Kish it looks like it does. So 6 one way half a dozen another.
