That's as far as my hose would reach for the spray gun
In fact, it's a good job I parked that way round otherwise I'd have ended up with a yellow car with an orange trunk

Cheers
Yeah, jury is still out on the bumpers. I had to do a few fibre glass repairs, hole filling and satin black it rather plentiful in my workshop so that's what it's got for now.

RE: bumper I heard that you can get a chrome effect if you spray a gloss black base and then a couple of super thin coats of silver?

You can buy chrome paint also, looks similar at a distance, not quite the same though. Chrome is chrome. But I think Silver would pick it out nice.
Black goes with the wings through

Paint looks great James, the tail stripe really suits it too.
And yep, the bugs love yellow!
