Re: Colour coded bumpers
hi im thinking of getting my bumper colour coded,but one paint shop has quoted me 350 and another paint shop said if i get the parts 150 but having trouble getting the parts renault say they only make one type of bumper inserts for the megane cc which are a rough finish,and how easy or hard are the bumper insert to remove from the car because i could remove the parts from my car and just have them painted.many thanks lee scott

Re: Colour coded bumpers
to be honest mate i don't know how hard or easy the bumper inserts are to remove, i left the car out with the sprayer and he did everything.
yeah he filled in a dent in the wheel arch as well, if you have a dent there, they will have to respray the whole quarter panel as there are two layers and dent can't be fixed without breaking the paint
cheers. i'm not sure what you mean by straight swapping the tyres?? i just swapped the 18inch wheels with the standard ones but the diameter of the tyre and wheel remain the same because of the low profile tyre. so i havn't made any changes from that point of view. although if you were considering 18" i would go for 45 instead 35 like i have, the ride would be smoother and you wouldn't have to worry as much about potholes. the car is not lowered at the minute, when the funds come that could change.
