Hey Peeps...
I was just wondering if anyone has colour coded the black bumpers to the car and if it looks any good... my car is white so i dunno if having the bumpers white as well would make it look decent.... Also if you have coded them did you do the side thing along the doors aswell.... and what kind of paint did you use?
Thanx
ive colour coded my front diamante bumper bar, looks good i reckon, next exterior mod will be new and colour coded rear bumper, and side moulds
the reason y i didnt get the side moulds painted the same time was that it was a couple hundred more just for those crappy pieces of plastic/rubber to be painted, reason being coz it was u had to muck around with it too much. but they will be painted soon
i had mine done by a pro, 2speedy (i think its him) did his 1 by him self, also a diamante bar and was white so hes probly a better person to talk to

I colour coded the front & back bars & mud flaps & mirrors & grill which is just a standard ts grill.I painted my car to look like an SE as everyone else paints theirs like a verada. Just gave everything a good sand and clean undercoated it all then a few coats of white top coat to finish it off.I only used cans of spray from super cheap , repco etc didn't cost that much at all.Cheers Greg.
