Ok, regarding the bondo thing, I went back to them, and they said they would cover the bondo work if the situation was different. They would not do it even if I paid for it because they said the bondo covering the seem(s) between a rigid metal corner panel and a flexible rubber bumper simply would not stand the test of time, ie: separate or crack. They said the bondo, labor & paint for such a small area would be cheap and was not the issue. Other body shops may quote it but he suspects after they feel the rubber bumper they may realize the potential risk. He said he's had his body shop for 31 years and in his experience he wouldn't suggest it "based" on that material. If the bumper were less flexible it would probably be ok. Keep in mind the flexibility is not visibly to us but something the bondo would eventually reflect. He also said it would be less work to return the stock bumper if needed for any reason.

For me it doesn't matter but for some I guess that is something to consider prior so I figured I would post a reply....

Thanks again for all the feedback. On to the next mod.....
