Hi Sharkie,
Your front bumper came out really nicely, and it's been something I've been wanting to do for a while now. Where did you get it done and how much did it cost if you don't mind me asking? Does the coarse texture of the bumper show through in the paint, or do you have to sand it back so it's smooth?

Its a panel shop used by Austral VW. I've asked for their name and will post once I have it.Quote:

I chose the latter and it really is indistinguishable from an OEM painted bar. Highly recommended!

how do you think the bumpers would go with vinyl wrap?
You could either wrap them or plasti-dip them. Both options would be cheaper but less permanent.

It was done by The Bump Shop, Eagle Farm Brisbane.
Neither Vinyl Wrap or Plasti Dip would give you a completely smooth finish. The way mine was done, it looks OEM factory, which is what I wanted.
fair enough. I just look at how trashed my bumper & first 400mm of my bonnet are after 5yrs/125,000km & keep wishing I'd had the front end wrapped in clear from day1. Figured it might kill 2 birds with one stone (colour & protection)Quote:
