Post by mk3_beast »

i smoothed my bumpers off yesterday, just took the bobbles off them and meade them shiney,
took the tow eye covers off both of them, and smoothed my rear splitter in, and black meshed both,

Where did you get teh mesh from?

So what happens if you break down and you need to be winched onto the back of a lowloader?

they must be old photos then, coz you can still see the dimpled pattern on the black part of the front bumper and also the flash lines from when they were cast.

but they do look pretty neat

Saw this car the other day, very impressed with the finish on the bumpers. Wish the paint on my car was as good! mk3_beast - if you ever have any VW metallic mint paint lying around I can put it to good use... :wink:
