DIY | RATTLE CAN | GLOSS BLACK | Painting Grilles and Trim *Fiesta ST150*

  • A while back I split and painted the inside of my headlights, but ever since, the faded grey plastic grilles and bumper trim have really been letting the side down. So it was time to do something about it. I removed all the horrible grey plastics and prepped them ready for paint. I went with the classic gloss black and for a rattle can job I don't thing they came out half bad.
    Hope you enjoy it and be sure to let me know what you think!

    You can do all that without taking the bumpers off mate. All can be clipped off or out

    • @MendItModIt
      @MendItModIt  3 роки тому

      Yeah it just made life a lot easier to remove them for me, some of the clips can be a pain 😂 most of my arch liner clips/screws are missing so the front bumper was only 3 bolts each side and the rear was already missing the rivets so it only took me a few minutes to remove the bumpers.

  • @csomerville6559
    @csomerville6559 3 роки тому +1

    Looks so good in black. The thing I have left to do is the lower grill. Do you have to remove the whole bumper to get it off, or can you just Jack the car up & push the clips out that way?

    • @MendItModIt
      @MendItModIt  3 роки тому +1

      Yeah it makes such a difference. You don’t have to remove the bumpers no but most of my arch liner clips/screws are missing so it was only 3 bolts each side for me so took less than 5 mins to remove the front bumper. The back you would have to drill out the two rivets to remove the bumper but should be easy enough to remove the diffuser and reflector surrounds with the bumper still on. 👌🏻
