Default Bumper re-spray

Had my bumper filled and sprayed this week, £220 inc VAT for filling the number plate holes and rubbing down and filling around the plate holder, washer jets and lights where some monkey over sprayed the whole thing before.

It looked bland without a badge but having just removed the side "Honda" badges I thought i'd stick them in place of the big "H". Number plate will be smaller and without the red outline when the new one arrives.









Good and bad comments welcome.

Fletcher

Would look good finished with a front lip. I've not seen the little Honda badge being used before and although its not my cup of tea then I think it looks better than replacing it with the 'S' that some do. Have you thought about a black chrome or black H? There's also a black sticker H option as well that you could think about, will make polishing much easier for you.

Paint job look like it might be a good job, but badge and plate position don't.

Sorry.

Chris.

I was thinking about maybe an anthracite "H" but nothing else is that colour on the car. I'd literally just taken the Honda badges off and had the double sided foam in the other hand, spur of the moment. Where do I get the "H" sticker?

Just realised how shit the pictures are lol.

3/4 size front plate, move up to where it used to be, lose the Honda badge, finish with a lip spoiler, job done.

Edit to say - if you like it then WGAF
