Front Bumper

Post by stuc » Sun Apr 21, 2013 10:47 pm

Thought I would have a play and paint the section on the front bumper as I thought there was a bit too much white, Came out ok I reckon, what do you think?
Also painted the grill gloss black a few weeks ago.

Like it, makes it look wider imo, which can only be a good thing. 8) 8) 8)

That looks really good, even though i'm generally a mixed about blinging (with a few notable exceptions). But that really works well. =D>

Stick an oblong number plate on as well Stu, makes 'em look wider and gives a bit more airflow to the rads.

you just need to get rid of the orange indicators now :shock:


Hi Dave, how do you do that? Is it easy?
I like the idea of losing the orange, had never noticed until you mentioned it.

Cheers Dave, but I dont dislike the orange that much to go chopping my lights up, think I will leave them as they are.
How does Ste come up with these things, I'd never even noticed the orange bit in there till you said.
