What colour bump strips?

by Rob-se9 » Tue Oct 29, 2013 2:46 pm

I can't decide! I'm planning in spraying my door handles red, now do I spray my bump strips black as they're light grey and showing there age or spray them red too?

What do you guys think? I can't make my mind up :/.

This is Simple...

It all depends on whether you want to keep the Original look, or go the Modern look...

I say Go for the modern look, and colour code them Red as well...

In this video, you'll see colour coding with the Red and White cars...

The darker cars, look colour coded anyway...

Hope that helps... ;)
