I don't mean to sound like an dick, but thats worst suggestion you can make. You have to install the bumper before you paint it to make sure it fits right otherwise you end up painting the bumper then finding out after it's painted that it doesn't fit right and you need to do modifications to it, therefore you have to pay for it to be reprepped and repainted. When I was getting my custom bokykit made the bumpers were put on the car before they were painted to enure they had an OEM fit and flowed well with the rest of the car. Remeber everything has to look bad before it looks!!! example would eb when you go in for a complete paint job, the car looks terrible in primer but once it's painted it looks awesome .

As long as its not primered for more than a month or so during the fitting process and what not because once it becomes just another car that thinks leaving the unpainted kit on is cool then there is a problem! But yeah cant wait to see it in the end!

The car needs to be painted and not just the bumper!

Attention to jackazz you have to test fit a bumper before paint to insure fitment. Go callout RICE elsewhere fool.

I love close minded people like this. Everyone complains that there is not enough mods for our cars, but when someone does something a few people don't like then it is wrong. Good god people!

Why is that being closed minded? I don't like it, so I expressed my opinion. Anybody who posts mods of their car, should expect to get opinions from those who like it and those who don't.
