HI there, just wondering if anybody good with photoshop will be able to edit my mini for me? I would like the back bumper deseamed (removed so it is smooth) Thanks :)

Should give you an idea.

dont do it!

dont do it!

I agree.

 

It's alot of work to do it properly to a standard where it's not going to be 1" thick with filler and it's a nightmare to change back if you decide to in the future.

Thanks for doing it for me Ben, i dont think it looks that bad to be honest but if i was to have it deseamed i would have it done professionaly by a mini specialist who has done work on my car before

If done properly by someone you trust to do it properly then it's not a bad idea if you like it. I just don't like to see it when people do it badly and end up with filler all over the place and poor sealing etc causing it to rot out a year later.

 

I do quite like the look though.

I understand what your saying Ben, i've seen a few minis at shows this year that have been deseamed to a very high standard but at the same time i've seen a few with cracks in the filler that just lets the car down. Its just a case of finding somone who you can trust to do a good job on your car.

Don't really like come bumpers but it looks better than deseamed, may be a Kevlar look bumper or may be gloss black.

I'm deseaming mine and instead of filler im using weld..... Then just a thin layer of filler to shape
