plastic arch trims removed

[nelds]

here are some pics of before and after arch removal. i've also fitted the new side trims, just need to get bumpers done now. still don't know whether to colour code bumpers tops and splitter or go with black the same as side trims.....open to suggestions

before


after with driver trims fitted








bloody rust scab



came across this poxy dent.......gutted

My arches were messed up slightly so I left the trim on.
Quite like the gloss black but it don't really suit the other black trim, maybe get the rest done the same?
Out of interest Why did you get them sprayed up?

i really do prefere the arches left on...maybe look better if it was lowerd and had the non textured bumpers

[nelds]

i got them sprayed because i got fed up with cleaning the plastic trim over and over and over. they were textured but had them smoothed and coated with high build primer before top gloss coat was applied. colour code the bumpers or black the tops do you think...

I am a fan of the de arched look...... was thinking of sorting mine but still unsure?? and I would try and match the rub strips to the bumpers or full colour code them...

That dent will take some sorting.

[nelds]

you didn't replace the corners so it'll look unfinished

Nelds, why not colour code the side trims & bumper tops, leave the lower spoilers (front & back) alone though as they just don't look right painted!
