Do I Need To Paint

[Bond]

I'm looking at buying a bar for my S2 33.

Anyway my car is white and the bar comes in a white Gel coat. Can i leave this finnish or does it need to be sanded, primmed and sprayed white???

Any help would be great

cheers

dunno, is it a fibreglass frontbar?

I've been told they need to be painted as the gel coat would not have any UV repellant properties like paint does, thus will start peeling eventually,

unless I've been mislead?

i bought one on ebay that was of a similar description. it was a very flat white colour, and had tiny bubbles in it everywhere. yes you will likely have to sand, primer, and paint it. also, the gel finish wont be close to your cars existing paint!

theres a subject up the top of this sub-forum about nissan paint codes if you were after them.
