Modelle asks: From: [email protected] Subject: [alfa] Re:options to straighten a GTV rear bumper
Gentle Alfisti, Has anyone had any luck with straightening a dinged stainless bumper? The early seventies GTV bumpers were thin-gauge stainless. A source for a decent replacement center section might be the best option. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Yes indeed, this applied to both my Spider and Berlina. Peck the ding out from inside, raising the surface a little above where it was pre-ding, then sand the injury down in progressively finer grits until it matches the patina of the area around it. Both my cars (Spider from May, '72 and Berlina, Oct. '72) had significant bumper dings when I got them. Now, nothing shows. It's one of the best Sunday afternoons you can spend without a fly rod in your hand.
