My car is going into the bodyshop next week (see http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=119960.0) and was wondering if I should have the black plastic moulding on the bottom of the front and rear bumpers colour-coded???

What do people think?

[AlanD]

Yes, should have come out the factory like that imo.

agreed, they will need to be flatted down first though as there not smooth plastic, but definatley colour code them

colour code - looks better on lighter colour cars 

[Ben_1uk]

That's a yes then

agreed, they will need to be flatted down first though as there not smooth plastic, but definatley colour code them

They're like a textured finish aren't they from memory? I know the guy at the bodyshop and he said it will need smoothing down and a lot of primer but it should work, yeah..?

yeah do it

List of things to be done:

- Tailgate removed, re-sprayed and then re-fitted
- Front bumper replaced and re-sprayed, including colour-coding
- Rear bumper replaced and re-sprayed, including colour-coding
- New number plates front and rear
- New number plate holders front and rear

The garage reckon they only need the car for 3-4 days

Sorry guys but i vote no, they look cheap and nasty colour coded IMO, but it looks like i'm the only one to think this lol!
