looks fucking wicked.

how does this glossing bumpers work then, im desperate to do mine !

[Ali123]

cheers mate!
and it was a bastard to do! but got my mates to help me which made it alot easier!

basically what i did was mask everywhere and everything up haha using bin liners and masking tape, then sanded the bumpers using 240, 600, 800, 1200 grit sand paper. Then applied primer, sanded gently, another layer and let it dry for an hour or so, then went over it with gloss black paint, gave it 3 layers then lacquered over it

cheers mate
and ouch, the bus route part must be a cunt :/
like today when i had to have the garage door open because of the fumes ( i swear its dissolved my brain away! worst headache ) but yea anyway whenever there was wind it just dumped loads of shit on to the bumpers when they were wet so kept having to peal little bits of leaves off etc then respray
can imagine it being 10x worse with the bus route being there!
