I was wondering if anyone has attempted to repaint the rear bumper filler pieces and what type of paint did you use. Mine are in good shape just dis-colored from age. I have removed the metal inner reinforcements and wanted to see what anyone has used on the plastic in the past? Any Pics?
Update The picture shows parts are primed and painted with plastic paint.

I painted mine with the same paint I painted the tail light panel, Orgasnial(sp?). Not correct but it came out looking good, better then the faded gray. I tried several paints to match the gray and could not find anything that was close enough.

This is a great question. My Challenger is at the bodyshop right now. They were planning on doing some test sprays of different colors to find one that matched the front fillers the best. If anyone knows of a different solution let us know. Even if the paint matches pretty good, you will still be able to tell that it is painted.
I always just assumed that the Cuda rear fillers were sprayed organisol like the tail panel but I guess not. The Challenger rear fillers are sprayed with argent paint so that isn't an issue. Just the fronts are natural on the Challengers.
Cudas do not have bumper fillers in the rear like challengers, poster above is talking about the bumper guard plastic filler inserts ?
