Corsa arches/bumpers

[JamesMcbride]

Right...
I spent most of saturday spraying the crappy grey arches on my corsa, i thin kthey look better now. the question is, do you think that i should spray the black bit of the bumpers too?

looks good mate! When I sprayed the black bits on my astra bodycolour it made the side rubstrips stick out because they were still black so I needed to remove them to complete the look -if u see what I mean

yeah, i see what your saying... I'm unsure what to do about em atm. they will be a pain in the ass if i do end up doing em tho!:@ p.s sorry about the pic size! iv just looked at the thread on a different computer, and the pic is a bit big! oops

lol, fortunately I am using a 19" monitor.
TBh mate - they look fine like that - leave it a while if ur unsure.

Looks like you've made a good job on those arches. You definately need to do the bumpers now though, as you can't leave it as it is. Here's mine, same colour as yours....





I'm after a standard rear bumper, may do you a deal with my coded one if your interested. I'll also have my painted door handles up for grabs shortly as I'm replacing them with Vectra rears.

Hey, the pictures work
This is my only attempt with spraying exterior parts, my modded scuttle panel. Done with aerosol cans, its not perfect but I think it looks heaps better than the original black one.

Did you use aerosols on the arches, James? Looks like a decent job.

i used a spray gun.. took me about 4-5 hours
