spraying

Hello fellow pug owners,
Has anyone tried spraying the plastic black bits on the bumper and sides?
I think mine would look better if they where the same colour as the body work.
:D

Yes I have, but it's not really DIY as you need 2K paint.

Have you looked for replacement trims? When I was looking for my CC i found one that was all body coloured and looked in to black replacements. It was only around £150 for both bumper and all side trims.

Did my rear bumper strip on the hatchback with plastic primer, filler primer and normal top coat from local paint spraying suppliers ... it's not metallic on that one, but looks OK.
