g'day all,

sorry for the confusing title, as it's probably hard to explain in a few words. I'm gonna remove the towbar from my BA XR6, and as you know that will leave a hole in the middle of the bottom skirt where the towbar goes through. The other day i went to buy the cover (from Ford) that covers this hole, but it came unpainted. I was just wondering if you guys have any suggestions on how I should go about painting this piece of plastic (i.e. should i DIY it or take it somewhere) as I have no experience in plastics painting. Guessing i could do it myself as its such a simple job, but any points would be greatly appreciated fellahs! cheers

just a light rub back tne some plastic primer, maybe some primer then some coloured top coat and some clear

easy as lol

a panel shop would only charge about $50 so you got think is it woth the trouble of doing yourself
