paint i have a 2001 firebird with the factory ground effcts and my front bumper looks like it killed a whole generation of nats (looks) there are little white specs all over the front of my bumper but you cant feel them. so my question is. can these be polished out if so is it worth or should i just get it repainted. the reason i say it that way is the front skirts need to be painted as well and i was thinking of haven it molded together i have posted about it before but i like to drive the car and i know if i do that im going to run into trouble if its molded into place.
ne way advice from the pros needed sorry i dont have pics of it my digi is on the fritz

If it's etched clear, and it isn't too deep, you can just compound the surrounding area down and polish it out. As for the TA bumper swap, you can't go wrong either way. Pontiac did a good thing redesigning the V6/Formy bumper.

i have often considered but after i saw a photochop someone did for me shaving the liscenc palter area an the front skirts on. im leaning more that way i wish i could find that pic to post it. but i talked to my buddy at the shop today and told him to lok inot how much it would cost for me to have him do it and i might try and cut some corners by sanding and do some minor prep work
