    Few Issues; Blemish on Bonnet - Sunburnt Trim - Retarded Door Handle?

    Blemish on Bonnet

    Easiest, cheapest way to get this fixed?

    Sunburnt Trim

    Would some 'Forever Black' fix this up?

    Retarded Door Handle?

    Yeah... =/ It used to be functional, just pull it out to that stuck position (shown when I let go of the handle) and give it a solid pull and the door would open - now it refuses to budge. It's not locked har har. What's the go here?

    You also can sand it down and paint it or leave it chrome
    Door handle spring seems bad or stuck or handle it self

    Yeah I've seen that DIY but the reason I asked is because some replies say I should probably sand it down because of its condition? Do I just sand it down (what grit?) and then apply forever black?

    How would I go about fixing the door handle spring?

    Forever black is for 'faded' trims (greyish black to black). Yours ain't faded, its gone. Either sand it all off and go bare or spray it gloss/matt black.

    theres no easy or cheap way to fix the damage on the roof, it looks like the roof has been bogged up before and they did not do the process correctly which is causing the bog to lift off the metal.

    Pretty much the whole roof needs to be sanded down and resprayed.
    OEM parts whore

    It's on the bonnet - so I'm thinking of just getting a new bonnet as this would probably be the easiest way; just wanted to see the alternatives.

    Start using 200 grit 400 > 800 grit and go up until it is smooth and clean.
    You have to take the door cover from inside and inspect the handle

    Bonnet need a repaint

    With the bonnet, get it professionally resprayed. Cost you 200 or so.


    ... or put a sticker over lol

    Where's that image from?

    I'll probably just spray paint over the trim in gloss black, is there still a need to sand it down?

    Haha, I was thinking CF Vinyl but ew.

    Respray or new bonnet? A new bonnet would be around $200 or so as well I think?

    Black bonnets are easier to come by. If you're into that look that is. Even if you find a yellow one it won't match properly due to fading etc
