What is the best way to colour code my bumpers??
Can you just spray over them., or do they need to be sanded down . primed n then sprayed??
Is this an easy job or should it be left for the pro's!!
If so , any1 know ruffly how muchh ? ?
Thanks

You can just spray them but I wouldn't recommend it. Just sand them, prime and spray

pair of bumbers i would estimate at £200-300 depending on who they are, how good the job is etc
it isnt a difficult job but made alot easier if you know what you are doing and have experience, i wouldnt attempt it with rattle cans!

to cc it you need to obviously mark the rest off and then sand off the textured surface before you primer it, my gf payed 260 to get everything cc including spraying and fitting of a gsi spoiler

The whole bumper is colour coded. Its one of them that comes all black from the factory and was sprayed star silver a few years ago.
