Hi all,
I am looking to smooth my front bumper (badge recess and number plate holes) on the GM 350.
Ringing around for quotes and as I'm sure you're aware it gets pretty expensive due to labour costs.
Well me and my brother have had the idea of prepping the car ourselves, get it somewhere near and only pay the body shop to finish off and spray.
I've always wanted to do this work myself and me and my brother, who has been a mechanic for over 15 years, are no dab hands at this but know our way around simple paint prepping.
Just wondering if there's anyone on here who has done this themselves before? What's the best way of filling the holes and the recess to prevent future cracking and any other tips on the prep?
I know patience and time are the major factors so we won't be skimping on those.
Thanks in advance,
Mikey
P.S. Please don't comment with 'just get the body shop to do it', I'm looking for people who have done this and succeeded, not those who haven't had the balls to do it.
