i have a problem

on my bumber i have a few scraps.

even though my car is an sx it has a red bumper.

its is as you know an 899cc sx and I was wandering as i can not find for the lief of me where it is.

can some one tell me the colour of my car.

(no obvious answers cause all i see in my folder is car colour=Red)
 
Gaz your a genius i could kiss you
(lol)

I found it its says Rosso Racing.

which is racing red i believe

am off to halfords tomorrow to get the correct touch up pens tomorrow
 
Racing Red 131 was what I used on the bumpers.

Those scratches are back to the plastic of the bumper so for an effective repair, you would need to primer the area again. I used the red plastic primer, so the paint layer is flexible (to an extent)
 
ahh so just touching it up won't work

i don't want to take the whole bumper off.

i want to do it quickly and efficently

let alone cheaply
 
Thats the way I would do it tbh...get some spray cans, spray it on some paper, then touch the paint in using a brush.

A touchup kit would work, but it may crack and flake as its not a plastic-specific primer in that!
