Bodywork question

I just bought a used 206…it’s bodywork is pretty beat up. Thoughts on spray painting old/new bodywork vs wraps. I imagine wraps are better, but any cons to just painting them?

Thanks!

I’ve seen one that was painted and the paint was flaking off. I would think it was from contact and the flexing of the plastic that pops the paint off. I also do not think the material that great for paint being a LDPE. I believe that is the correct material.

I started a vinyl/striker wrap thread. It’s starting to get there with information. I think you’re better off with a wrap than paint.

Paint basically won’t work. It’ll just flake off, especially if there’s contact, you’re likely to see a confetti show.

Wrap is the only way to go on plastics.
