John,

I had great results using SEM spray paint.  I believe it was 2005 when I
last painted my front grill and bumper and they still look very nice.

SEM Trim Black #39143 and if desired, you can use SEM #39863 Plastic
Adhesion Promoter beforehand.  I don't know if the adhesion promoter was
necessary but I used it anyway.
