Replace it or change your car. Car removal services like cash for cars gold coast as they buy old used cars. You can earn top cash and buy a new one. You can also sell working parts separely.

Can they come and collect I live in Kampong Glam?

Quick check because most of the discussions are sometimes back. How much to remove booth spoiler and respray booth? Spoiler is just glue on type for Mazda 3? Workshop please.

Hello. Would like to seek some opinions here.

 

Thinking of respraying my car as the paintwork is turning yellowish and there are paintwork damages (stone chips, dings and dangs) on the bumper. Previous owner also used liquid paper to try to mask up the stone chips.  -_- If I were to respray on the current bumper, after refibre/putty+respray, would there be a risk of the paintwork cracking after sometime? 

 

Or would it actually be wiser to replace the bumper with a good condition secondhand one followed by respray?

 

I'm keeping my options opened. May be a good time to change new bodykit as well but not exactly familiar with the different types.

If it’s done properly, refibre/putty + respray shouldn’t crack.

Cracking usually happens when the prep work is bad — too much filler, not sanded right, or poor materials. A good shop will strip it, prep it properly and you won’t have issues.

That said, if your bumper is already pretty beat up, sometimes it’s just easier to get a clean secondhand one and spray that. Less work, often better result.
