was on holiday for the week so my car went into the bodyshop :D very pleased with the results!

got the 8v front bumper smoothed, 16v rear smoothed and painted (it was dragon green), and sills de-rusted, de-dented and smoothed :thumbsup:

how much for the front bumper to be done? looks quality

The front bumper looks a bit messy where the two bits join together?

pics dont really do it justice... still got to paint handles, sunvisors, and get fabric dye for the door cards (farrr to awkward to do with the material :( )

Looks like a good job! I want to do mine, but I've got too many things to do elsewhere as it is!

i'd leave sunvisors etc give a good contrast!! :thumbsup:

only took just over an hour or so to do, and was a pretty cheap 'mod' :)

unsure if i want to get balck or leave.. might just paint up another set and swap them over! haha
