Painting accessories
I have just ordered a couple of things for the truck that I want to paint up to match body colour. Only small items such as bonnet hinges and a lab craft awning light.

Any tips on painting them up?

I painted the housing on my labcraft light. I used a Upol etching primer and the right body colour and clear from Halfords. Not really got any tips other than keep everything clean, do it somewhere warm, fine wet and dry between coats and let it harden before you reassemble. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS
