Agree, white rims look tasty on a black car. Is it a mission to keep clean?

Yeah, black and white are the two worst colours to keep clean lol give it a wash twice a week to keep it looking tip top tho! :happy2:

Yes, if you're referring to the lower portion of the bumper then i had the whole section sprayed as being black worked fine, with red i'd suggest only adding colour to the arch of the bottom section like the r32 bumper does! Seen it on a couple of different colours and looks good! :smiley:

what did you use to do ya fogs in yellow?

Ordered some pre cut Lamin-x from the American site! Saves all the measuring and cutting to size!

They're off a Mercedes E class, think the actual name for them is Mercedes Ankaa.
