Hello all,
Recently, I ('99 LC, Black, 170K) had a bit of a run in with a cement barricade in a parking lot (was an old lamp post barrier with the lamp post removed, so I couldn't see the barricade as I pulled out of the spot). Long story short, I sustained a bit of front end damage. I deiced to use this as an opportunity to repair the damage myself. I popped the dent in the bumper out using a heat gun and a bit of brute force then painted it along with the side cowling and rear bumper. While I was at it I also painted the front grill. I was a little unsure about the large amount of plasti-dip to be used, but now that it is done I absolutely love the results. I thought I would share some pictures for those interested.
PS I know plasti-dip isn't for everyone, but I hope that some folks may enjoy this look - I sure do.
