I am wanting to paint the balck trimming around the bumpers and wheel arches?

whats the best way to do it and what do i need exactly, also where can i get it?

i think the wheel arches must be able to prize out the simply click back in or?..

then obviously take the front bumber off and the back then tape off the skirting?

any help is appreciated in advance, cheers, callum.

think there is just a couple of screws holding the arches on. the arches are textured so you will need to rubb then down with wet & dry to get it smooth. what colour are you painting them?
