did you key it proppa?
:eek: i think that means prep. if so yes i did i got my mirror smashed off:mad: and i had to replace the cover i sanded it down and primiered it and sprayed and laquered it (excuse my spelling :eek:)
 
you cannot use ordinary acrylic primer on rigid plastic. it just cracks and comes off after a while. use a proper plastic primer. they are usually yellow. spray the whole bumper with it [once rubbed down]. it needs to cure 24 hrs before smoothing down. then spray the bumper colour.:)

i would spray hers but surely going to be harder? and then her car will have no bumpers on at some point.

Easy. Take bumpers off, prep/spray primer, fit bumpers back on if car's needed, take bumpers back off and spray top coats and lacquer (y)
