Joe.. repainting the hood and bumpers is truly about the only repair for that kind of damage.. but luckily, it shouldn't be that much to do "just those parts". as far as the leather, I'm sorry, but I don't know much about leather 'bondo' and such, but when you find out, please let me know as well, as My wifes Park Ave has the same issues with her seats.

Good luck, bud

Some of the paint work can be buffed out Joel, but a lot of that needs to be painted. If you want I can show you how to buff that bitch out. I have a buffer you can use. You will have to do it at my house though, otherwise you may try to steal it.

yea... came to that conclusion for the bumper..... but for the hood... its just a handful of spots... like about 15 or so.... someone told me that i can use like a drop of touch up paint for each one....

the leather... yea.... so far ... im told it could be repaired... but its a hit or miss... depending on how good the person doing it is.

Consider it stolen already.

You don't want to steal anything with me at the house.

There is no roids in my house. You would be in trouble if there were though.

For the body stuff you'd need to sand and paint it - or live with it.

I had used this guys product to repair a seat on a convertible I had I even sent him a head rest to perfectly match the leather color - its not easy work it has to be done perfectly - its like body work - the cracks you have are on the piping and near a seem- thats not going to go well - if I were you id clean them moisturize the leather and live with it - its a used car you cant make it perfect
