bumper painting

My son has a black 2000 Xterra. Paint is nice, but the bumpers are faded and gray.

We looked up what to do. He wants everything black. We checked YouTube, this forum, and other internet site. We see crazy suggestions as peanut butter (!!!), blow torch (???), etc.... Not trying these!

We narrowed it down to 2 options...
1) Rustoneum bedliner
or
2) Kylon Fusion

Our concern is that part of the bumper is metal and part is plastic. Which is better? should we lightly sand everything with 800 grit, then prime, then use one of the 2 options above?

We are planning to just take the bumpers and trims off and paint them and put them back. We hope to have it last about 5 years.

Any suggestions or recommendations?
