What do you think about repainting plastic body parts (bumper, hood scoop)

So I'm starting my swap from wagon front to sedan front. I wanted to know what the ppl felt about repainting plastic parts. I don't know to much about paint. I did heard that once a bumper is painted it isn't to great if you sand/repaint it. I don't know/remember where i heard it but i wanted to know if it was true. thanks

not true. you can repaint anything and make it look good as long as u prep it right and use the right products.. if you've never sprayed b4 i sugg u take it to sum1 who has, unless u wanna experiment, ha, which is never a bad thing.. but if u wanna make it look good, take it to a guy or place dat has experience
