As I speak my RH rear is sitting waiting for the primer to dry.
I used bumper Black paint from supercheap but didn't sand enough so now I have hit it harder with60 then 400 and sprayed with Septone high build primer from Supercheap, and after it is dry , hit it lightly with 800 then paint with the black.
The other stuff such as back to black, kitten etc etc doesn't last long on my car.

BTW I was just considering whether to remove the rest as they are a bitch to mask up.
When the ones on Charlie started fading I used Autoglym Bumper & Trim Gel.
It worked very well and only needs a re-application once a year or so to keep them looking nice and dark.

Havnt done the flares as yet but i do polish the mudflaps:angel:
Is there a trick to removing them prior to sanding and painting?...mine are well overdue for some treatment...
I got the impression everyone did theirs on the vehicle lol (at least I'll do mine that way.. eventually). With some pretty dedicated masking/protection of the panels it should work. I certainly wouldn't want to fuss around with those things new, let alone aged and probably brittle
they are held on with double sided trim tape (fronts have a couple of screws as well in the wheel arch) they do come off reasonably easily replace the tape and refit even though they are up to 15 years old they are still very flexibleQuote:
