Default Best spray type paint for grill and bumper

What rattle can black paint works best for a front grill and metal front bumper? I’m all about durability so let me know. EASTWOOD has a new 2k spray can system, looks really good. If there is anything else being used, and help is appreciated. I don’t plan on repainting the plastic end caps or valence. Thanks!

I used Krylon Fusion on my B2200 seven years ago and have been happy with it, see this link B2200 front bumper replacement

I will look into the Krylon Fusion. Did you use some kind of adhesion primer since it’s on plastic? You painted that part on the grill that is normally silver around the headlights black too didnt you? I want to keep the silver so that’s getting masked off. I couldn’t get to that link last page 1. But I think I’ve seen pics of your truck on other posts. I will probably paint the valence and end caps too now that I think about it. So it’ll match. And did you scuff your the grill before painting with a scotch brite or anything?
