Thanks for the inspiration BoondogUK. I just did mine using the same paint and despite my poor spraying skills it cam out quite well.

The track name in the last photo matches the work which you have done.
Well done.

Nice job mate, think it really suites the beige interior

Brilliant job - looks very good.

How does this hold against scratches, etc.

Silver trim sprayed in black may show up scratches quite a bit - no?

Well, I guess this is always a risk. I resprayed because there were a few scratches in the original silver.

I ensured that the trim has a solid prime and did a good few coats of the matt black to ensure a solid base and top coat, ensuring it had correct curing time... so I guess I have done everything that the original coat would have had.

I've not scratched it yet, and imho worth the effort

Cheers - really stuck between spraying like yours and wrapping. Out of curiosity, how much wrap would i need for a 4 door ?

Not done a wrap so not sure?
