Guys,
Very unpleasant experience....anyway, here is the damage. there is a dent in my original bumper. Question : 1. can this be "repaired" or I should look for a replacement bumper? 2. where to look for a replacement 3. if it can be repaired, anyone has any idea on cost? I need to ask the other party to pay for this.... Thanks everyone.. Carson Attached thumbnail(s) |

repair repair repair!!!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Those early bumpers are rare and hard to find, it would be much more expensive to replace then it will be to repair. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |

and although the early 70 style rear bumper is readily available in stainless steel, there is no way that one should EVER put aftermarket parts on a six unless all hope is lost
