Look in your phone book for Auto PAINTS Stores. Call them and see if they will put it in a spray can. (many do)

If not the one listed above, Tower Paints. Or you can get from your local paint store the paint in many sizes and use this (found at Home Depot) and put it in it ans spray (will do a better job than a spray can)

quality will be all of what your capable of doing or what what type of attention you will put to it?

don't forget that its not just the color paint. you're gonna have to prep and apply a primer and a couple of clear coats. its definitely do-able, but the bigger the piece, the harder it is to get it even.

Painting takes time and patients. I am actually pretty good at painting. Thats the reason I want to paint my bumper.

Unless you have a spray gun (which im guessing you dont since your asking for step by step directions) you want it to match, bring it in and have them spray the bumper.

WDP is a color of paint. White Diamond Pearl

They mix it on a per order basis. They are paint stores.
