The first place does all the work for the Ferrari and Maserati dealer.....the second services a major corporate BMW dealer and the third is a multi million dollar facility that's known as one of the better bodywork places in the city that does a lot of insurance work.....

I'm not making the statement that it's bad to paint the bumpers but merely repeating what they told me. I have no background in auto paintwork.

I was hoping they were wrong since I really wanted to do this but can't help but find it strange that unrelated shops would say the same thing.

Oh...yeah...and I came off hostile on my post...hence your post...again...I apologize.
