Sorry to disappoint you Nectar, pearlcote is only suitable for a very rigid/solid surface. The VDM is soft unfortunately....2 pack paint works very well as long as you prepare it properly. Prahran platers are good for delicate chrome jobs like the VDM. I had mine restored there by Santos (a Brazillian employee) including the hornring for about $150.00.

Nectar, sand it back thoroughly and bring it to a place that performs repairs on plastic bumper bars and have them apply the special 'plastic' primer they usually use and then just have any reputable spraypainter paint it in 2 pack...use autosol for the hornbutton!
