ammarbm Posted May 16, 2014 Author Share Posted May 16, 2014 And finally the rear lip. A tragic story lol. The first thing I started spraying.£9.54 for a 400ml color coded aerosol spray can not too badAll ready for sprayingPlastic primer appliedIt was fine when I sprayed the color on itBut I sprayed the lacquer too close and it went funnySo I rubbed it down with a scuffing pad and did one more layer of color and then 3 layers of lacquer and it turned out nicelyThen the tragedy. As I was rushing to fit it the night before japfest and it was 11.30 at night when I finally managed to fit my rear bumper I just used some uni bond no more nails stuff and some double sided tape and one screw on each side to fit the rear lip. However as it was raining in morning when I stopped at services to meet Matt I found out the double sided tape had come off at the bottom but it was still holding on at the sides so I thought it will be fine till i get to japfest but when I got there I found out it had fell off on m5 . A couple of members confirmed this as well seeing a few cars drive over it so all that effort gone down the drain . I am looking for another one now so hopefully I will find it soon.

Krzys Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Was a shame about the rear lip! But it's happened now so no point in dwelling on it, I'm sure you'll find another! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was the little fella with Mr B and Krzys, I don't think we got properly introduced though. It is a shame about the rear lip but as above nothing you can do now, on to the next one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
