   my breasts are ok i have you know
   
   but anyway on the topic, i dont see the point in colour coding a black car, just get some autoglym bumper care on there

    colourcoding looks nice .... makes it look different. non colourcoding breaks up the car a bit more tho. but its extra effort having to grease it up every time i clean ... hmmmmmmmmmmmm

    Trouble is colour coding on some cars make the car look too plain.......like if u got all one colour there needs to be something on the car to brake the colour up and abit and yeh i must admit once bumpers have been siliconed they look nice
    
    You got alloys yet mate? if not id rather spend money on that then painting bumpers but if your keeping standards then fair enuff
    
    Its your choice at the end of the day mate....

    definately colour code it.
    
    black saxos that dont have the side strips painted look like they havent been finished imo
    
    i would always colour code a black car. other colour cars, such as white, i wouldnt colour code.
