Default Painted front and rear bumper--pics?? Help!

I am thinking of painting my front and rear bumpers completely including the skirt. Could you guys post some pics for me with the examples?? I remember one that was linked few weeks ago but can not find that pic.

Thank you very much.

Well, definatelly very very nice!!

I will definatelly paint the bumpers!!! (don't have money for the sides)
Impressive!!

Q question for you?? If you ever get s8 mirrors, would you sell me the right mirror?? Yours looks full size!!

One more Q: do you have crome strips on all fo the lower grills or did you paint them as well??

thanks

Default If I were you, I would get the sides painted as well...

there are few pics in older posts with an A8 (silver) w/o the painted sides and imo it looks funny.

I'm trying to locate complete S8 mirrors with little luck. if I ever do find some, I'll sell the other mirrors..most likely both together...

the chrome strips can be found on ebay for few bucks, or you may want to ask paulw as he has found another source for them that is less expensive...

hope this helps....

Thank you.

Keep me in mind when you will sell the mirrors.

I know abuut the chrome strips but was not sure if that is what it was.
