Well I gave my car a quick wash this morning and took quite a few pictures.
I have been busy colour coding my front and side bumpstrips (ran out of paint, so couldnt do the rear) which turned out better than I thoought, I will be doing the rear next month.
I painted my brake callipers red
My sports bumper arrived so I put that straight on and looks loads better.
Any comments and suggestions welcome
thanks for looking

I had a go at mine a month or so back, the front bump strip came out looking matt
However I have just come into a tidy sum of money so will get the pro's to di it this time.
You've convinced me it needs doing again

Ah right, that is an alright price, I paid about £45 for the paint and new clips so £100 is good.

I spent about £60 on paper, primer, paint & lacquer.
Just on the front bumper, and the result was poor
