    Re: Mk2 astra body kit

    Use a heat gun on it, dont hold it in the same for too long you'll melt it. I take it that its the standard bumpers. Failing that peanut butter is supposed to be good on black plastics

    Cavaliers Mk1 Mk2 and Mk3

    Re: Mk2 astra body kit

    Dont paint them. It'll just flake off.

    Use the heat gun method suggested, it works.

    Shiney C20let Nova

    Re: Mk2 astra body kit

    Painted black ones look utter sh*te.

    Warm them with the heat gun, this will bring the oil back to the surface, then treat them with something like Auto Glym bumper care, it feeds the plastic oils and keeps them looked a nice dark grey as they should be.
    I'm louder than gods own revolver and twice as shiney.
