Black VTR? Spraying Bump Strips?
Hey,
I have a Black VTR, is it worth getting the front and rear bump strips sprayed the same colour as the car (Black) or Gloss black? Pictures please.

Well worth it!! it will look mint plus plastic can fade so personally I think it's the sensible option!

IMO i dont like colour coding strips..
think it makes the whole car look plastic, i like the black strips.. breaks it up a bit..!
aslong as you rub in a few coats of 'back to black' every now-and-then they will keep there colour well..!

get surface cleaner, just re-spray with matt black. will look like new or rub it down and spray it gloss black, will look smooth
