Not sure. It's possible to pull just the blade out. But if I ever get enough money for my re-spray I'll be smoothing it over anyways

Re: Bredsticz MK2 BredMobile!

Bredddsticz <3 car loooks qualityyy as usuall.. tbh im not sure on the stripes, but the rest of it is bufffff

maybe get stripes down the middle running into the bumper ? allo white wing mirrors and get them skirts white aswell!!

Re: Bredsticz MK2 BredMobile!

Re: Bredsticz MK2 BredMobile!

I like the stripes
It is lowered 35mm and that'a a pain in the ass as it is. Front did seem to be sitting unusually high today for some reason though

thought id not heard off reu for a bit

Re: Bredsticz MK2 BredMobile!

looks great with wheels on m8 good job again, also think you need something going on on the sides think maybe blue wing mirrors don't want to over do the white from front elevation.maye be white abarth symbol on the side skirts.know it's prob a bit late as you removed 1 side but bump strips would have looked good in white.

Re: Bredsticz MK2 BredMobile!

How did you go about CC'ing your front bumper strip?
And the rear one? Can't seem to unclip mine

the easiest way to change the wiper is by replacing the whole think imo - but u can just remove the blade and slide in a new blade and trim to fit. its cheaper that way but too much messing about for me. lol

Well ive looked under and I can see some clips.. but they dont move.
Maybe im just a soft git

Bred, how did you CC yours?

Re: Bredsticz MK2 BredMobile!

Car looks really good!!

Re: Bredsticz MK2 BredMobile!

Cheers Dombooth, iLeno: I bought cc'd standard bumpers and on the back you can push the clips out, You do need to unlock each clip and push! Then a good rub down with the green side of them cheap kitchen sponges you can buy (where one side is sponge and the other rough)
Sprayed the sprips with primer, gloss, lacquar. 2 or 3 coats of each.

The main white bit of the front bumper I masked off, rubbed down and painted in the same way.
Wait for the paint to dry properly before removing the masking tape and pop the strips back in.
The rear bumper strip comes out as a whole then push back in. Trickier to push back in than out

Don't suppose you can help with removing the strips? Honestly don't budge. You take the whole bumper off?
And how long to dry out?

Re: Bredsticz MK2 BredMobile!

Yeah you have to take the bumper off 1st. Then push the clips from the other side.

15 minutes or more between each coat of the same type (primer, gloss or lacquar) and then 1 hr between each type of spray. It does say to leave 24hrs but I cba with that.
