[quote][i]Originally posted by l88fty[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by Mark.W[/i] Called into another bodyshop today that does a lot of smoothing and customizing and they said they can do it but it would be done with fiberglass. is this alright if done properly or is it a no no? He was honest and says there is always a chance of it cracking if it got caught on a kerb or speed bump but always guarantees he work so if it ever did crack they would sort it. [/quote] All bodyshops are going to have their own way of working on these type of things, alot of bodyshops won't even touch jobs like this. It will need a certain dagree of fiberglass, but not to fix it to the bumper. It was bonding from behind, then plastic welding the join on the front to make it strong and secure - then theres no risk of cracking if theres any movement or flex in the bumper. Then it was fibreglass behind it to make it rock solid, then someone would use a layer of fibreglass on the front join to give a bass layer to do the filler work on and get it nice and smooth.
