If it doesn't fit,

If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Ended up buying a Clarke CEW1000 as I got it for a bargain at £35. Got some really good reviews, only downsides are that it's corded and it's quite bulky, but I don't mind either tbh.

Thinking about painting my bumpers, as I hate the black they are atm. I have loads of satin black paint left over from my steelie's refurb, so was thinking of painting them with that. Need your opinions. Would it look better CC'd Atlantis Blue with the rest of the car, or just go a nice satin black, as I already have that paint anyway?

Go satin black, then maybe blue in the future if you get bored of it

I think that's what i'm going to do. Looks like an easy job and already have all the stuff. Looks quite good when other people have done it

I'd go for gloss black, purely based on how nath's car looked before it was Orange, I'll dig up his thread and copy a few pics over for reference

Its unfair though because the color coded pic has a gsi bumper so it looks miles better

I suppose, but I think it'd still look better with a normal bumper from those pictures

I think colour coded with gloss black trim looks the best unless it's a Gsi kit
