nice work mate bet tha was a night mare to mask up lol think the paint will hold up to the heat under the bonnet?

Never mind the heat, how did you get it to stick to that plastic

iv got some lime green ready for mine when i get round to it

Lightly sanded it, then got a bit of plasti-primer from a mates bodyshop, 4 coats of red paint.
Took me an hour to mask up, the used a scalpel blade to scrape away the excess, to be honest it was an absolute nightmare, although it was my first attempt at it, leave it to the pro's i think in the future lol
