Getting my TE resprayed soon and i want colour coded bumpers. Can anyone give me some information on doing this. Surely you cant just spray over plastic bumers, is there an additive to 2pac that makes it flexible to prevent cracking as the plastic distorts??
any other relevant info greatly appreciated, cheers

yep i know there is a product for acrylic called flexi prime. But also you will need an addative to your paint, the one for acrylic is called flexi add.
Just ring your local paint shop...
cheers
