tom-mot Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I've got some silver five spokes on my escort and think they would look better white, what paint should I use on them and I do I have to prime them before-hand or just clean them?

tom-mot Posted August 15, 2009 Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 Also on the subject of paint the bloke I bought the car off yesterday put a new bumper on the front and it's not been painted the metallic colour, any easy ways to get round this or do I have to get it re-sprayed?

dutchkev Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 are you sure its a different colour or has it simply not been laquered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Is it a black plastic unsprayed bumper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchkev Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 if its the same colour as the one in your sig (panther black) then there SHOULD be metallic flakes in the paint, if not then its more than likely been sprayed ash black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
