When should I get the bumper resprayed??

I want to paint my lower grill portion of my 02 CL-S same color of the car, when is a good time to paint it, in the cold, warm or doesnt matter?? It is real cold up here in NY, will it make a diference after it is painted it in the cold when it is still "pure" even when it is baked in the oven??

I need some paint work done for a dent in my rear quarter panel. I went to go talk to a body shop about the curing time. They recommend doing it in the mid-spring timeframe because it takes 2 months minimum for the paint to properly cure in warm temps. Cold temps SOMETIMES have adverse affects on fresh paint jobs that won't even show up until a year or more later. I'd rather be safe than sorry so I'm waiting patiently until I get it done.

In your case, it's not like you have body damage that needs to be painted, so just wait a few more months.
