As the title suggests I'm looking to paint my plastics at some point in the future.

Just wondering how much paint/primer/lacquer I will actually need?

Planning to do all of them gloss black except the fog surrounds which I want to colour code diamond white with gloss black fog rings.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I'm going to be doing mine soon buddy you could always come here and we can do them together, when you Planning on doing them?

I didn't do the grill, only washers, fogs and reflectors. 1 can each of primer, paint and lacquer was more than enough. Just scale it up accordingly

After a quick search I found this


Apparently that's enough to do everything

yeah when i did mine i had 2 small lacquer 3 small primer and 2large black from halfords

Cheers guys

Definitely up for that. You said you had some time off work coming up?

Yeah I'm off from the 25th on June untill the 7th of July, got a few things on but I'm free most days between there

Blue water meet hint hint

I just did all my plastics and used:

1.5 large cans of black paint from Halfords (3 coats on each piece)
1.5 cans of plastic primer (3 coats on each piece)
Half a can of lacquer

Exactly more people the better

Sounds good to me. I'll have to see if I can get the 29th off work first though.

I'd probably take your number off here just incase you never know who's looking
