not quite don't think I have a steady enough hand for that, it is a sticker, just going to put on another clear coat to sandwich in between the layers to avoid peeling.NafemanNathan wrote:Looks good mate That done with a Sharpie?

Re: Sol-ludes new BB4 - Bit of underseal pic heavy
So the rear bumper was really annoying me with how it was hanging so I thought I would take it off and have a look. BTW don't look if you want to see a complete bodge
Some of the stickers needed removed. The silver one was some 3d effect prelude sticker - had to go
Yes this is actual super glue I need to get at it with some sandpaper
Rubbed down most of the rusty patches before going at it with some primer
Some plastic welding done - reinforced this with copper wire from stripped wires
I got the bumper back on but the plastic welding on the thin bit across the upper section of the bumper wouldn't hold so is causing it to sag. Any tips on how to rectify this? was going to try and make some brackets and somehow attach on the inside. Also it started to P down so didn't get the chance to get finished pics. Still needing to fix the stickers and badge.
