I've painted my bumper and door moulding black, but thinking I want them colour coded now.
Any opinions?

Very time consuming and a royal pain apparently.
How long should it take to do the rear?
I could do the fronts in afew hours.

if its siezed you should be able to do it within 4hours. just buy a big hammer and a strong bar to knock the torsion bars out. you could be lucky like i was and it wasnt siezed and changed mine 1st time in less than an hour. just follow the guide off here.

It will, but I like the mean looking black bumpers.
Might do the door mouldings red and leave the bumpers black??
