[CoasTek240]

ok so i finally got a 89-90 front lip. and best is i got it for free. but its got liek 3 minor cracks in it.. the biggest being 1 1/2" so hwo would ya'll go bout fixing it? i was thinking maybe some resin jelly. and heating it up. any suggestions?

drill little holes and zip tie them cracks together
haha
fast cheap and easy.

are you making fun of my front bumper? >_<

hee hee zipties do work wonders...

be sure to 'color match' the zipties too... black car use black zipties and so on

[Dousan_PG]

nah i love zipties
got a bunch in my glove box
my 89/90 lip is attached by zipties. zipties are the greatest! :)

youre all gay answer his question realistically::D

[Dousan_PG]

that is serious
zipties save all. i was watching DT #14 and one of the kouki s14 had his bumper broken into like 5 peices. it was ziptied back together hahahahaha too funny
works fine!!

edit: a certain somebody (aka lucky bastard) has a hotroad kit which wil get ziptied on. drifting isnt friend to a car's body.
another person i know, has his bumper zip tied on due to ease of acccess to work on things as well as the little accident wasnt great to mounting points. also less weight up front w/ removal of certain parts.

or if your car is silver you can use duct tape. black, electrical tape, etc. :)

ok hes not talking bout mounting the front lip... he is going to use ziptuies... we got these sweet heavy duty black ones already.

his question is referring to fixxing the lip. the one he got is cracked. and he needs to fix it.. its got three minor stress cracks.

[Dousan_PG]

that's what i said
drill a couple small holes and zip tie it
probably one at base of crack, one at top
use smaller zip ties too, wont see it. also paint the zip ties same as lip
when its on car, there wont be much play in it anyways and it being ziptied hard to the car wont let the lip rip off
it'll work.

At the shop we use the might 3M panel bond the primary use is to replace quarter panels and so on but we have used it to fix cracked bumpers its easy to sand and paint over. :D

[-E-]

Go the zipties! Fast, easy, cheap and unnoticable....well sort of......OK quite noticeable but did I mention it's cheap?!:)

[the head]

melt together cracks using soldering iorn then just sand and refinish
