Hi guys i have a freelander 1 and the bumpers are looking a little faded i was thinking about having a go painting them and i was wondering if anyone had done it and what kind of paint did they use. I just painted the back drums with some stonechip and it looks well and i was thinking of doing the same to the trim and bumpers or am i mad. Thanks

Transformed my V6 wheel arches with black bumper paint.As I had facelifted the V6 with 2004 bumpers, it looked odd with grey arches. Worked a treat and looked great. You can also get it in grey.
