Cool just searched on ebay and found loads so thats where i'll buy.

I used halfrauds black magic on my centre caps and it was like spraying water at them! Took about 5 coats.

The bumpers are looking good mate so far. Once they are fitted they will pretty much finish your car off.

And whats the story with the ronals?? You bought them?

I might also have to look into this hycote paint.

Yeah same story with the halfords stuff I used, is ok for small jobs that don't need a good finish lol
