What is the best way to colour code my bumpers??
Can you just spray over them., or do they need to be sanded down . primed n then sprayed??
Is this an easy job or should it be left for the pro's!!
If so , any1 know ruffly how muchh ? ?
Thanks

yeh id do it myself..i might be getin a set already white but if not im doing it myself.
and the bumpers already have a rough surface so u can can the propa plastic primer OR just key them usin wet n dry..then normal primer should stick propely..then paint and laquer.
have u got pics of ur grill cut out mate? iv done mine and just fitted mesh..chek my project log called white rally slag.
