Smoothed bumpers

botlfed · 12-31-2003, 04:08 PM

I just had my front and rear bumpers smoothed with panelbond and repainted, the pictures are not really good but you can tell,
on the front the inlayed trim is now gone the license plate bracket and pontiac logo and emblem are all shaved and the ring around the grill openings is no longer there.

on the rear the inlayed trim is now smooth, the pontiac logo and the inlay around the license plate.

Bumpers are Now installed

to have them painted and smoothed using 4 tubes of panelbond was $800.00

AMRAAM4 · 02-27-2004, 04:26 PM

where's the smoothing? I still see ribs.

grandamgt6969 · 02-27-2004, 04:30 PM

I think he is talking about the black rubber thing that goes in the bumper. Looks good.

AMRAAM4 · 02-27-2004, 04:33 PM

OH......

...well in that case you wasted $800

If you would read from the top you would have notice this
