Small update, bye bye Rio been a good 2 years now have a 2015 Kia Cee'd SR7 1.4 diesel for them long family drives.


back to the sax, both front and rear bumper has been removed, masked up and black strip repainted, then removed the whole VTKit, replaced all broken clips clean up the mess that was under it, masked up and resprayed the black trim with some standard black bumper spray no gloss black on this one, not my cup of tea, i applied a light coat of tiger seal around all the clips on both the panel and the trim, found that the passenger side was missing the nut that holds the rear 1/4 on so fitted a new nut she still needs another clean and some more attention to clean up some mess from the tiger seal seems to be just rubbing off. cleaned and refit my indicators too, also removed sprayed the rear badges with some satin black to give its a darker look than just T-cutting


Prepainting as you can see this is why im redoing it.






I used a few spare wheels to apply pressure to the kit over night.




will be doing a few bits tomorrow, and will have another update next week, thanks for looking going back to drinking my monster
