Hey guys,
The previous owner of my 318IS made some nice lovetap dents in that part thats below the front bumper and above the I/IS lip where the foglights are in (sorry, I don't really know what it's called). It causes it so my lip doesn't clip into it in the middle because it's tapped in a little bit. It feels like plastic.
I don't know if this is possible, but will a bodyshop place be able to reform it so it smoothens out to how it would look like without the lovetaps so it looks like its how it's supposed to be (aligned with the lip)?
Also, how much would it cost to detexture it, along with maybe a paintjob estimate?
Would it be more worthwhile to try and find another replacement... lower-bumper-where-the-foglights-are piece for the car that isn't banged up and have them just detexture and repaint?
I realised that I should change the plans for my car and keep it... well try and make it like this:




Just because of financial reasons and stuff like that, it would be much more reasonable.
So yeah, anyways does anyone know about how much it would cost or if I should just look for a new piece and detexture/repaint? Thanks.
