Basically going get my car booked into a bodyshop for some bit of rust that's starting to come through with this shitty winter weather also going to replace the pattern part front bumper that's bugged me for the last couple of years with a genuine bumper and possibly having a Steinmetz front splitter smoothed in along with 4 new arches due to some clips being broke on them.And was thinking of having the bumper trims,skirts,arches,door handles,roof rails and scuttle panel painted too because im sick of trying to keep them looking black with sprays and gels but not sure what colour to do them.

what colour would you do?

I think i might do them satin black tbh.

It will keep them nice and dark and will still keep the OEM factory look without having to keep using sprays & gels.

Will do a trial on some old arches 1st to see what they will come out like.
