Thanks I'm going to have a crack at it when the weather clears up.good luck with that pal ! I guess you need to remove the back panel first then see whats what ?
Thanks for that it looks not to bad to do.
Will let you know how I get on. Im thinking black for the colourThis is starting to happen on mine Dean, be interested to see how it goes
I seen them done somewhere is black thought they looked good. If they turn out bad I'll re do them hahaI think I’d like to keep the Crome effect, as it’s a bit of a feature.
Mine haven’t come off yet but I can get my nail underneath so they are starting to lift.
Yep, think black would look good. IMO satin blacks the way to go, got a nice sheen to it, gloss might look a bit tackyWill let you know how I get on. Im thinking black for the colour
Great thanks I'll look into it. Was it a difficult job?Yep, think black would look good. IMO satin blacks the way to go, got a nice sheen to it, gloss might look a bit tacky
plus take it from me, satin is a lot easier to spray on than gloss. Got my satin black spray from Halfords it's good stuff, no problems at all, they recommend grey primer, so 2 cans about £16.
No, quite easy, when you get the plastic bits off, give them a quick rub down, try and get all the shiny silver off, then 3 coats of grey primer, then 3 coats of satin black, job done.Great thanks I'll look into it. Was it a difficult job?

Oh, forgot to say when you get the grey primer, make sure you get grey plastic primer.
Sorry, might have wires crossed, i haven't done the seat plastics. I've done the chrome on the boot, which is plastic, so same principle for the seats.

Think it would look great on the seat plastics.
