a couple questions for ya

what does "i got replace door thats to ladyb4 me". mean? (do you want to know how to replace a door?)
I'm not being an ass i just want to help but i don't follow the question.

What emblems?

Do you want to know everything you need to do to prep and paint a bumper?

Holes in what? can you take a picture of the holes? cause if they are in the bumper you cant just bondo them.
