well, my paint work isnt 100% 1 laquer peel/fade on bonnet, bumper covered in stone chips which is obvious. few scratches etc here an there. moneys tight at the mo so cant really afford a complete respray as much as i would like too, so going tryna decide weather or not too give it a matt black? satin black? paint job.

any ideas on this? seen few pics of cars already had it done an to be honest i quite like the look.

just wouldn mind some info on best ways too do it, how long it takes etc? any advice/help will be repped of course :p

cheers

Yeah the matt black is pretty easy to do mate, ad if you scratch it or something, just give it a quick once over with spray can, job done lol

Satins abit different mate, as you say has a shine to it.

Imo matt is old news now been done to death, but looks good though, satin is the way to go now!

Check out Padders GT, i think thats satin maybe?

mate on ur picture i was gonna do the same to my bonnet with the green vent, cause i got green rotas and green stickers!, what kinda paint did u use.



i used some metallic green lol just summin from halfords, it faded tho so i changed it back too black lol. only used it cos it did my strut brace , an that was really bright but the scoop didn turn out as good. my amateur painting skills more than likely lol
