Had a little incident over the weekend... have scraped the paintwork off the bumper and taked a small lump outta it see pics...

What would I use to fill the lump? Also whats the best way of repairing the paintwork, sand down a square and then paint over, or just paint over whats their already?

Its a 98 1.8 - do ya know what Blue colour that would be on the mx5parts website?

Thanks

The paint code is normally found on the vin plate located on the bulkhead or the vehicle id sticker found above driver side door striker plate.

Fibreglass...fill/sand/sand/sand/fill/sand/sand etc....

here's some info on paint codes

Thanks lads...

What would be the best way to go about this? Sand down a section lightly and then apply paint, or just paint over?

Thanks

The code for my paint is 12k, but which is mine?

Racing Blue 12K
Twilight Blue 12K

Same thing, just different descriptions by different manufacturers

The code's the thing you need, not the description.
