Car Colour

Post by chezny09 »

Just recently bought an X-Reg corsa B and its not colour coded so a looked under the bonnet and the code is 72L. Thats satin red iv sprayed them and theyve come up great but the thing is the colour on the car has faded since its 11 year old :/. The bumpers are darker than the car and it doesnt look good. how do i make the bumpers fade the colour so they match. Iv been told to use t-cut. Any suggestions?

Im guessing they are colour coded bumpers? Ether way i wouldnt "fade" the bumpers id polish the car. Since the bumpers are plastic the paint lasts longer,

Tcut the cars metal bring it up shiney again
