    Can anyone point me in the right direction to someone who can smooth the whiskers on the front and rear bumpers? Been trying to get this done for a while but my luck with people I think can do it has been shyty.

    they're whiskers.

    Pontiac thought they were making cats with holes in their head rests.

    Cause you must have a brain tumour to buy a pontiac.

    On a side note: You would want to find a body shop that builds hot rods, and lots of them. They're typically in the business of doing quality work.

    Ahh ribs yea I understand. Yup hotrod or restoration shop typically have the skill you could also try some body shops. When you have a day off go around and get quotes from a few shops than go from there.

    I know GOINDEF does the work cause we spoke briefly about it a while back but apparently he's not interested in doing the work anymore cause I get no response when I message him appreciate I figure ask the forum for some insight cause I have seen plenty of people on here with them shaved.

    There is one guy that does custom work and paint to cars here where I live but I have already had issues with his paint work...and the rest of the body shops here have a bunch of special stupids working in them cause when I ask can they smooth the grooves out of the bumpers they all seem to do the scratch their head and ask what do you mean smooth them out thing.

    You could try contacting some of the Grand Rapid guys like Dan or Boostedgtp I know they had some body work done at a good rate could be a possibility.

    Tried talking to Dan once about some gauges he had and got no answer ever, as far as boosted goes I had no idea he had any body work done .

    When I had messaged Dan it was like a couple months after I joined the forum....it wasn't a big deal that he didn't answer cause people are how they are ,I'm sure you can understand that my good man,as far as boosted I will have to send him a message to see what he says cause as far as I know GOINDEF has done the majority of the peoples I have seen on the forum in this general area.
