recently bought a corsa but the plastic arches and top bits of bumpers have been painted was gonna rub down and re paint what is best to use also would like to know if a v grille bumper would fit a 97 5door corsa as i hate the horrible platic grill i have i wanna put a debadged one on if it fits

just get normal plastic primer would b better then get the colour u want to spray them easiest way tbh but im not sure about the bumper you might have to check it

my plan is to have them looking really shiny black if u know wat i mean was thinking primer then colour and some laquer aswell saw plastic paint in halfords for tenner but wanna find out more on wat to do before i start it as still saving for cavi slabs in black with red lip

as amove, plastic primer, called plastisiser, sorry for spelling give the plastics a good but light rub down, if you go too heavy the plastic will go furry if you get what i mean, then just paint as normal
