Good welder needed

Looking for some to weld up the turn signal holes on my head light surrounds on a 67 cutlass. Need good enough so they will polish out and not be noticed. Any ideas welcome

Buy new or NOS ones. Way cheaper

In the bezel or core support?

Nobody will touch that. Too fragile. And then why would you want to?

I don't need the turn signals . They are a part of my outer headlights . I am also reworking a 59 dynamic 88 grill to fit where the grill bar was.

I guess I could recast them as thicker aluminum and then polish that. Or I could cast them in bronze and have them plated. I was just trying to do it the easy way.

The 67 headlight bezels are way to thin to even think about welding. Glue a filler in it.
