Cool stuff,

I took mine off yesterday! Wooohoo, but in the process the metal bracket that holds the valance on by the exhasut has the screw well and truly welded together by rust and what not. So i took the valance off bar that one bit and then unscrewed the brakcet from the car. New bracket on order £2.50 - winner! So im going to saw the little bas**** off!

Now when it comes to painting would i be better off using -

Sanding valance down then use -
Halfords Enamel Paint Adhesion Promoter Spray
Then a plastic primer
then top coat
then lacquer

I dont want it peeling off on me.

Ta in advance.
