GT500 conversions using the GT/CS rear bumper...>>

What did you guys use to paint the sides of the bumper to match the rear (between the tailpipes)?? If you painted the entire lower section, what did you use?

Either way, does the color match the unpainted front chin spoiler? I'm assuming you guys used the unpainted side rockers from a V6? I need to know by tomorrow (11/14/06) as my parts are being painted then.... Thanks!

That rear section is part of the bumper cover. Along with those side areas. It's all one piece.
All 4 areas are one part:
1. Rear Center Section
2. Bottom Strip - Right Side
3. Bottom Strip - Left Side
4. Bumper

Since they are all the same, in order to match the unpainted rear center area, you would leave the bottom strips on each side unpainted also.

EDIT: I just re-read your post and I'm assuming you already have the parts so you know already everything I just wrote.
I can tell you from experience, flat black sprayed with a clear coat is shinier than the V6 rockers.
