what do they need by way of repair?

[Rusty dan]

there is a few light scratches, a couple of deeper nicks/chips.
I suppose I could flatten it high build primer and satin/matt black them.

if they are textured, a good bodyshop will be able to match the texture of them before they paint them (i'm assuming they're painted) or just leave tem as unpainted plastic if they're not.

I will investigate...

had my front one smoothed and painted. You cant tell the texture is different from looking at it (other than it has a glossy look)

However the paint does crack after a while..
