    If you can afford to have it done professionally I would say do it. But if you are planning on a diy job and you've never done this sort of thing before perhaps leave it alone. Better black than wishing you hadn't

    Echoing all the advice above...

    Mrs Gsi's vec is going in to the bodyshop on the 18th to have the rear 1/4 painted where some little scr#t keyed it..

    When I went for a quote I asked about the plastic's and he's only charging £70 more..

    Now she can't wait..
