ChaosMyth 5th Gear April 4, 2018 Share April 4, 2018 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. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those cuts and scratches can be easily repaired by workshops and most of them will say the paintwork will not crack unless there are impact to the affected areas. My ex car has this problem and I went ahead to repair rather then change new. More economical for me. But do note that the respray might show 2 different contrast of white since the chassis paintwork is not touched. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
