i have recently put a vtr kit onto my white saxo, (thanks to foreverwelsh for the bumper). The kit is all icelandic grey and the front bumper is gold so its going in to be sprayed beginning of june. My orignal idea was to do the bump strips gloss black and the rest white but im now considering colour coordinating it all and doing the bump strips white?
What do you all think?

went to the garage today for a price etc and they said that they wouldnt bother painted the bump strips bcos it will just peel and flake after a while? Any advice or does any1 know anything?
Depends how well it's been prepped, if it's done well there wont be a problem. Sounds like a shit garage to me.
A few on ere have done there bump strips so maybe they will let you know but like said above its all about preperation!!
