quote: When I had my arches colour coded I had to replace a rear arch as it was cracked, I asked one of the lads at the bodyshop if he would prefer me to get a ready primed GSi arch to replace it, he said no as they are much harder to get a good finish on. He told me to get a new standard one and that he would prep it. | |

yeah i could but they are 32 each from vaux in primer, and aparently they are dimply aswell (as im told). and its the contrast between the top and bottom of the bumper im bothered about:mad: | |

Can you not buy an arch that is smooth to start with, rather than those dimply ones? that would be easier wouldnt it? | |

but itsnever gonna be the same finnish as the half that is coded tho is it. so it would be easyer to get a black bumper rite:| | |

smooth it a bit, then plastic prime, then filler prime, flat of the filler primer, then filler primer again, then flat it then prime again etc.. until its perfectly smooth, or your happy with it, then paint with base or top coat | |

so what is best to do, try to clour code the top of the half coded bumper, or buy a new bumper that is completely black? | |

dont use highbuild plastic primer, its crap, use plastic primer which is like a clear laquer type stuff then use hi build over the top. but you must sand the plastic first. | |
