a rattle can is common day slang for spray paint. I think he was being facetious.

no... when a decent shop repaints a bumper ... they fade blend it with the rest of the car... which means paint and clear hitting the hood and both fenders alike... you could review some MAACO shops around... they do cheap paintjobs... best suggestion would be to do ALL prep work (sanding, priming, bodywork) and then have them paint and clear... they are quite cheap but dont do door sills and under the hood and such... some people say the paint jobs suck but the ones that suck are becasue they don't prep will IMO. do that for em... and you should have much better luck...

jesus..that car is making out with that damn door...those two need a room..
using spray paint isn't that bad..i got some spry touch up paint that matches my factory color perfect, spray clear coat, and I got one of those things that "turns your spray can into a spray gun" and it doesn't look too bad...look at my pic of my passenger side in another post..( just behind the door by the side skirt) it used to be gray primer after i got my rust fixed
