Where did you go in Michigan? Also, where is it in Michigan? I live just East of Sandusky, OH, so it may be worth the drives to get a good set of bumpers.... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Richard Milkiewicz Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2002 8:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Chevelle-List] Opinions on Ausley's bumpers Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List ------------------------------------------------------------ Jim, I wasn't talking about turning your bumper in for another. Take yours to a plater and have them replate it for you. Most good platers can do wonders with a bad bumper. Even fix rust holes. I had my Nova bumper replated here in Mich. The car was hit in the rear and the bumper was dented up pretty good. After they gave it back to me you would have to look at the back side to tell it was repaired. It turned out better than new. COST...... $300.00 for both front and back. (1996). I'm sure prices have gone up.
