Hi,

I have a mk4 fiesta - dark blue, with grey/blue bumpers. I was thinking about getting the bumpers sprayed to match the rest of the car. There are some light scrapes on the front bumper from when my sister crashed it into a wall. Is it possible to get the bumpers sprayed or will they need replacing?

Also, would mk 5 bumpers fit the mk 4 because of their similair shape?

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

I would use paint made for bumpers/vinyl since it's flexible and will not crack.
