240zBoy Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 I have chrome bumpers on my 72' that have dents in places and rust. Since I plan on painting them black can I hammer the dents to a generally stock location, than use fiberglass or bondo to get the bumper back to original. I am wondering cause I see no body doing this and was wondering if there was a reason as to why so I do not ruin a set in alright condition. I have been looking through the forums for a couple days and it seems everyone just buys new bumpers or salvaged ones without dents. Any help would be awesome as I am approaching this very soon in the build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rigez Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 You might want to post this in the body and paint category. My two cents if you have access to a torch. Have at it with a hammer and dolly. That should be enough to get it back into shape no need for bondo/filler. Lots of good wrecking yards up in Woodenville where you can get a cheap replacement as well.

DatsunDon Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 A chrome house that does old car will remove the dent in the bumper with a machine. I know one in NY, Husline Auto in Hempested NY 11550 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
