Default Primer

Guys,

I'm putting new front and rear bumpers on my car this spring, I'm wondering what primer to put on them? Main reason I'm not painting them right away, is that the whole car needs to be done, and I just want to get the bumpers into primer so I can tell if I put too much stress in one place; I figure that the primer will crack and show the stress marks.

Thanks,
Sean

Don't know if that will help you? A good paint shop will loosen the bumpers and tighten after the paint job dries.
