it all depends what look your going for because black smoothed bumpers and black GSI skirts of a red car looks awesome tbf but then again so does a fully colour coded car, and they're the spoken words from the bodyfiller guru :lol: 8)

not much chance of that cracking mate, as the gap it has filled is not very big, also aslong as he has sanded it rough enough that is :)
it will crack if its bumped hard though

Cars looking good late!

I was thinking on spraying all my bumpers as well!

Did you take them off or spray them on the car??

Alloys look good as well!

Cool thanks mate!

I was going to take them off but then I thought it would be easier just doing it on the car!

But I guess gives me somthing to do!

Going to start it tomorrow I think!
