What to do

As you know my car has black exterior trim,but the rears has gone too far for back to black etc,so what do i do? new bumpers with fresh red and keep on top of the black or can you get a satin black paint for a spray gun (not cans lol)which id get a sprayer too paint professionally.it would be easier too colour code obviously but not sure lol.

id spray them back to black dude, i think for your car with the porche wheels on... it would be for the best.

however this is the car i have... which on some models, came with black bump strips but on mine, it was colour coded



and here is mine



i know its totally the wrong car and stuff... but gives you a small idea i would think.

hope this helps mate

back to black is shite, u can eitther colour code, em, spray em satin, or use shoe polish as it last much much longer

i dont use back to black,i meant get them back to black,i know i can spray them satin with a can,but that wouldnt look good,thts why i askd if sparayers use satin

crackle black would be cool?

i think the way to do it is to prime, then paint a black base coat, then add a matting agent to the lacquer. dont know too much about it to be honest, but i will have a word with the painters in work and see what they reckon

ye ive thought crackle black b4,but never seen it for sale,ill have to go see the bodyshop.anythings better than grey bumpers lol

personally i love this......





or this for a bit of a change..



not much help i know just chuckin ideas out.....

like the 1st 1 ben,its me thats neglected her this year,so ive buffed polished and waxd today all meguiars,then tyre gel on the plastics whick works a treat except for my back bumper so its looking good again

yeah the first one is sick!!!

but you see in my sig, how black the bumers were on the white one.......thats the result you get from peanut butter ..........it is the way forward for sure!!

peanut butter ftw!!!! shame i cant stand the stuff!!!!!

yes colour coding is the easy route but Ian if you were to doo that it seriously wouldnt look right on the d90s i reckon

there are a load of paint products textured a nd non textured available to keep the black give me a shout if you want

ive used meguiers tyre gel,works a treat,and buffed,polished and waxd so shes looking good so stay on top of it now chhers

my fav stuff is Cartec t49 Vinyl that stuff is aaaamezin

get the heatgun out on them!

you can thank me later!

agreed with the heat gun, not close though, turns em back to black, some ppl even say peanut butter is really good, the oil in it turns it black again but for how long i dnt know, plus u'll probably get dogs and cats licking your car all the time..lol

i wouldn't suggest heat gun treatment. ye it works short term, and does a good job, but long term, if you keep doing it, it'll fuck the plastics good style. they'll be white in the end!
