smooth front end well i was in new york city and came out to discover that the box truck parked in front of me decided to back into my car and screw everything up. i don't have a before pic when it was all messed up but i have a progress pic and some after pics. what do you think? took the grille off and filled the holes and shaved the front emblem. just subtle changes.

i did all the work to the front end myself so i just paid for a little body filler, paint, thinner, and hardener. thinner and hardener have really gotten expensive!

It depends on the bumper, I don't work with bumpers but I have a background in body work. Everything I've learned tells me some plastic bumper repair or dolphin glaze is your best bet on there, but if the spot was sanded to to bare plastic, body filler may be fine, I shoot lots of bumpers that the bodymen send over that have just bondo over the bumper sanded to bare plastic (it's kinda hairy and porous).
