Evening all
I want to replace the bumpers on the BX as the back one is cracked (and is the wrong one anyway) and the front one has a large scrape down the side, as well as a few minor scrapes.
As mine is a phase 2 16v it has the one-off fibreglass bumpers that no other model shares, which makes them quite rare. I've managed to pick up a spare front and rear bumper, both in red but they're in need of a bit of repair. Nothing major - a few knowcks and stones chips, and a minor crack on the rear one. I'm happy to spend a bit of time rubbing these down, and getting them smooth but how would I respray them? Someone told me I'd need to use 2 pack paint, but after a quick google it seems that doing it at home without specialist equipment/safety gear is not recommended.
So, is it right that I'd need to use 2 pack paint? If not will normal spray cans (cellulose?) suffice? Or is it something that's gonna be difficult to get right so taking it to a bodyshop would be easier?
Advice appreciated!
