Spray Painting a Bumper LIP for Under $100 with PRO Results! | Honda Civic Project

- In today's video I show you how to fix and paint a front bumper lip with professional results! The Budget Build Honda Civic is no stranger to spray paint, but this is my best work yet! Queue the Rattle Can!
My last DIY spray paint job on the Civic didn't end as planned so I wanted to do it right this time! After acquiring a scraped and chipped OEM lip spoiler, I wanted to repair and paint it myself for the best before and after! Doing car mods on a budget is what I enjoy and I saved over $100 with this DIY job! I found that using the right paint and sand paper makes a WORLD of difference for painting plastic car parts. With that said, I still have much to learn about DIY bodywork and bondo lol.
It was time to retire my eBay front lip in exchange for some OEM goodness. The fitment of the OEM lip is unmatched and although it's less aggressive, I like the clean look. My Honda Civic has transformed a lot over the years, but little things like this make a difference in the BIG picture. I know everyone has probably scraped or broken a front lip at some point, so hopefully some of the techniques in this video help you out!
Since my "new" lip was used and abused, I had to do a bit of prep work to sand off the original paint. Going from 80-320 grit for most of the paint and bondo work. Then working with wet 600 grit for the primer sanding. Spraying the color coat was probably the easiest part next to the primer. The 2k Clear Coat was probably the most stressful knowing how much work went into the prep. That said, the Spray Max clear is a joy to use and really does lay nicely for spray paint. Needless to say, I was super happy with the results for a DIY job. Truly a close to the new finish!

The story about the kids selling rocks was adorable! Hope they see the video at some point lol, props to you for supporting small business :)
I think they will!
Bradley Hove I haven’t seen the vid yet I hope by rocks you don’t mean crack rocks 😂😂😂
that 2k clear is magic, used it when painting my wheels a year ago and they've stayed just as "wet", wont ever use anything else out of a can
It’s amazing stuff that’s for sure
Hands down my favorite youtuber at the moment!!! Inspired me to start making my own videos, first one going up this week
Zack Pack hope to see you at the top 🙌🏻❤️
Motivational Ricer Thank you for the love❤️🙏🙏🙏
Zack Pack subbed 😌🙃
\[#_#]/ thank you!
Painting vlogs are hella fun, I have to rewind a few times so I don't miss anything. TBH I've rattled can alot of the years and have used different products each time with different results. Not the best outcome so I'm always looking forward to see what others have had success with. Thank you!
This is a great vid, very well-explained and I love that you showed each product and explained why you chose it. I’m planning on sanding and repainting a used spoiler for my car and this helps a lot!
So good, so clean! Never stop doing this mate 🔥👍
That was awesome dude. I'm not painting or planning too but you nailed it. Not only the finished product but the production of the video. Most enjoyable.
Been watching all your vids and I just have to say first off, your Civic is amazing. Well kept and maintained. I love the simplicity of the car and the classic look of that car. Amazing videos. Keep up the excellent content!!
Mate, that looks beautiful. Nothing beats factory fresh👍
I’m just watching these videos and man I love the time and effort you put into your civic 🔥
Good to see another video out! Always look forward to them!
More to come!
That lip turned out great! I ran a body shop for a long time, it's a great skill to learn even if it's just the basics. It opens up a lot of possibilities for what you can do to your car. Anyway nice job man.
Appreciate you chiming in to say that! Thank you
I’m in the exact situation just bought a used oem lip for my Celica. Thanks this is the best vid I’ve found. 💯 Suscribed!!!
Seriously, man. That's one if the cleanest Civics I've ever seen. I'm building an EM2 and am totally bumbed out by all the trash civics I see riding around. Thanks for doing it right. 🎯🤙🏻
Watching you paint wasn’t boring at all! I’m trying to learn how to paint some parts as well thanks for the informative video!
Glad I could help!
Dude, great job, process was spot on, I work at a shop and all you did was correct.. Congrats bro..
Black bezel headlights with a retro fit would compliment the civic so well. Great videos brother!
This lip looks so good! 10/10 Much preferred over the ebay for what its worth. The fitment is just amazing.
Thanks a lot i really appreciate it. It's really amazing that we can learn at the same time and get an awesome result. That red paint looks amazing on the car and the lid looks really professional.
YES! ANOTHER CIVIC VLOG!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
You already know! Thanks dude!
Planning on getting a 6th gen civic soon and your build has given me so much motivation
Aye Anthony don’t worry bro it’s not boring at all painting projects are always thrilling a learning garage type of thing I enjoyed it tbh
Looks great anthony! one of the cleanest looking civics around.
That looks freaking amazing great job
You're an inspiration to young car guys man. Thumbs up!!!
Thank you!
Great work buddy. I love doing stuff like this. Matter of fact I am going to do that for my son’s rear trunk lip spoiler
Oem is Si lip is the way to go! Cant wait until you boost that d16 or do a b/k swap. Keep it up, love watching the civic contents!
Thanks man! I’m more inclined to swap down the road
Factory is 100x better imo, great job on bringing it back to new, looks like my em1 now except red 🔥👍🤟🏼💯
I keep finding these small TH-camrs with old jdms I love it
BRO THIS IS LITERALLY THE SAME THING I GET ARAISED WITHIN MY THOUGHTS. I LOVE THE CONTENT FAM. SHOUTOUT FROM WASHINGTON STATE 509 ALL DAY
I wish Honda started remaking parts for these cars or even remake them. Also, remake parts and d series,b series and k series
Not to forget the H and F series
Get your hondas while u can, another decade or so and they are going to become rare. Get em build em, get parts.. cash cow later in life.
I love this civic. I have a red civic EX too with only 100k on it all stock. Its an automatic but i still love it! Love the vids man keep it up
Looks awesome. Always better knowing you did it yourself. Great job. Bad ass car.
Agreed! Thanks man
amazing. It has inspired me to try to paint the new spoiler on my van
You killed it. Good job man
Hey Man, Once again I great video... I have been following the build since the time you got the civic and have been doing some of the things on my civic though due to covid 19, its been hard to get parts delivered.. Keep up the good work.. Love From New Zealand
Awesome thank you!

Damn, just like you anthony i went to the junk yard and found a OEM HFP lip but found it in black and is basically the same condition as yours when you got it. im gonna do it on my own as you have inspired me to do it

Thanks for sharing. Bodywork is oddly fascinating.
It really is
Excellent job. I work in a body shop and there's nothing wrong with your technique. 😎👍🔰

Thanks man I think so too!
My boyyyyyy already liked, love that red civic
Thanks for watching man!!
Looks absolutely fantastic man
Thanks!!
Subscribed... great work! This lip looks way better.
I know this isn't exactly a tutorial but watching your step by step process on your lip has given me confidence to paint my rear spoiler!
On the side note, my spoiler has drill holes, but I want to apply the red bond 3M tape; would you recommend putting the tape on my spoiler first (covered of course) and then paint? Or paint it first and then place the tape on there afterwards? I ask because I'm worried the tape might rip off the outer layer(s) of the paint once its done and fall off my car. (This question goes for any other viewers reading this!)
Came out nice!!!!!
I think so too!
It looks awesome dude 👌👍 I like both lips and that Civic it's always looking clean .
Appreciate it! Thanks for watching

Hell yeah
Damn you have the same taste I do evo and a ek lol very clean civic will be doing the rear lip I just ordered in a week when it arrives thanks for the paint tips
Dude.. that´s amazing! I hope i can find something similar for my 2000 Civic. Greetings from Argentina!
It looks sooo good
Came out great! Nice job bro
Thanks for watching!
Excellent job, love the car and this lip
Thanks!
ANTHONY ! I appreciate your videos so much. Thank you for taking the time to film your processes. I've been inspire to customize my 2000 Honda civic DX.. I bought a lip from eBay and I want to do the most and also buy the molding you placed between your bumper and lip. However, when Amazon checked for compatibility with the mold you linked it said my civic was incompatible.
Part of me is going to buy it anyway, but I wanted to get your opinion.
Thanks again. Peace. ✌🏼
I subscribed just bc of how well that red came out
I'm late to the party but thank you for the video. I'm about to do a lip for my 2021 corolla and no need for me to watch any other video as yours explains it all. Your civic looks great. You could also paint your lip, side skirts and mirror caps all black and that would all tie into your black rims and it would look so aggressive without looking over the top.
Glad you're going oem! Now time for folding mirrors and thin side moldings! :)
If I stumbled across the mirrors for sure
As much as he said it was boring im having a blast watching this 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome video! Super helpful. What grit would you start at with a bare abs/poly lip? I know you mentioned skipping the first few steps for new lips. Thanks!
Just stumbled onto your channel, really enjoy what you're doing in the videos
Thanks man! Stay tuned for more!
Came across your video on my journey to painting a spoiler for my '18 Camry. Very informative and great documentary of your process. It's given me the courage to tackle my project. Keep up the good work! Any update on the rock salesmen?
Looks great
Dude.. perfection 😍🤤
It turned out better than I thought it would for sure!
Love this channel bro 👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
Props bro this case out great. I see a lot of amateur automotive paint videos on TH-cam that give terrible tips.
Appreciate it man thanks for watching
Looks mint!! 👍🏻😁
Great job
I really like this painting content! The lip turned out great. Might as well do it on mine civic :)
You should!
If it’s bare plastic there is a plastic adhesion promoter. Learned the hard way on my bumpers when I painted them and it basically flaked off because I didn’t use it
Great job! 👍
Great job!!
Super clean 🔥
Thanks 💯
How many cans of each paint did you use? I’m prepping to spray front and rear lip along with grille and am not certain regarding quantity. Thanks for the great content!
Greetings from Philippines, nice work and keep it going, more subscribers to come and God Bless
55k jeez, took a break and now your here.
Nice car bro!!
Good job 👍 a palm sander works great !
