Whitesupraboy2 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Well ive had the week off decided to pull my finger out my butt. I bought b'have's mullered bomex bumper near xmas and had massive chunks missing, half the bomex circle for angel eyes was missing, had a big whole in the top, Mounts for indicators missing, cracks down the bottom. Anyway i rebuilt all that and took some pics of progress but they were on my old phone opps anyway, i had preped it all up (pic 1) and sanded it right back as it was originally black (my cars white) I then sprayed primer over it to hide the current grey primer (pic2) then started the slow process of spraying. In the end i done 6 coats of white Pic3 Im happy as it has a shine to it, but finish could be better, its not as good as having it done professionally, but in the future it will be done. Last pic showing ive also changed my lights from white to Black and fitted clear indicators to the bumper. Tomorrow i need to remove old bumper (EPC people pic would be great ) and also wire up new lights and fit new bumper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
