I was having a few thoughts and I'm not sure if to spray my bumpers gloss black or colour code them? I'm short on money so which ever will be less time consuming and the cheapest :p

Also any guide/tips on spraying them?

black would be cheaper than silver....

I was thinking the same thing... do you have any tips on spraying them? like what grit sand paper to use to sand them down and other things like that?

i'd start with about 320/400's and finsh with about 800's

also make sure you plastic primer the black bits or it will all come off when you wash it

Sand it down with 400
Plastic Primer it
Spray Black
Sand down with 800
Clear coat?

Also started to take the rest of my bumper strips off today... got them both off started taking the glue shiz off and then it started to piss it down... so will have to carry on with that another day lol

I have started spraying some of my trim and it's worked nicely so will get the rest done soon. Taking all my stickers off and putting a new corsa-b sticker on

getting some 40mm lowering springs as one of my sprigs has a crack in haha, then I should be getting a new backbox this month sometime if I can afford it

oh also I took the rest of my bumper strips off and it's looking nice

I will give it a clean on sunday if it's good weather and get some pics up

Forgot to add that I found some super glue and used that to stick my deflectors in :p but my windows don't go up or down very well... Any way to fix that?

I got some lowering springs today from my mechanic for £20!

and he will be fitting them for me sometime this week! I will get some pictures up when it is all done

for now here is a pic of them

They are in need of a bit of a paint haha

He said they where 40mm but i think they are 60 as looking at the numbers that are on it...

I took off all my stickers and the car logo part of the corsa b sticker was coming off so i took that off and was left with the website and it looked alright so i left that on lol

Got the rest of my bumper strips off too
