Has any body had this done or seen one done ??
Was thinking of having it done to mine, saves using back to black every time i clean it. I think it'll look ok on this car

Could just keep on top of it and buy some decent bumper shine!

how mine used to look:



Nearly got GSi skirts painted black to fit in but decided to colour code instead!

Looks good red and black if its done properly i just decided mine wasnt right

i've tried everything on mine apart from a heat gun. they are still half grey half black.
What actually works?
back to black doesn't,
autoglym bumper care didn't
boot polish didn't

Go for it, smooth the bumpers, use filler primer then send the archs etc.. into the bodyshop n get them a nice gloss black, would make the acr look mint and shiney!
