iv just bin told by people when u spay plastic it will chip off alot quicker then if u got brand new bumpers

i will defo pop in to kerrs place an see what he sez thanxs for the help peeps

the bumbers on my car have been sprayed, it looks fine n you cant tell the difference wen the job is dun properly like.

they dont chip unless they are constantly getting scratched, which is a pretty hard thing to do, and which would you rather have big black bumpers or nice colour coded?!

check out my pic n ull see the job done to my bumbers mate.

hi mate, just thought i'd back up wot everyone is sayin. I'd definately spend the extra gettin a proper job done. when i got my kit fitted it was quite cheap, but you can tell aswell. it didn't help when i rang the body shop all the time to see if he'd finished, he prob jus done a quick job to keep me quiet. Who ever you go to, jus be patient mate it will be well worth it! laters

if its done properly and baked on, then you wont have any problem with the paint flaking, cracking or blistering. on exposed plastic (like on my car) you need to use a 2 pack paint primer which smooths out the uneven surface. kerr's probably done it loads of times on corsa's, i cant see it posing much of a problem. the only thing is, you wont get a perfect paint match...ive been told this by several different bodyshops

Yeah perfect a perfect match is hard. If I was getting a body-kit, I'd get the lot plus spolier, then have a full respray on fitting.

If you're doing something, it's worth doing properly.

I'm due for a respray soon
