So today i woke up to notice my bumper is cracked.
Not sure how or when it happened. But i gotta get fixed, and looking for a good method to do so.

Guessing either a rock from highway or ghetto area by friends yesterday, or ice cause i washed car in cold or just storm that happened last night. IDKKKK :cry:

Heres the photos, its split thin ways. ITS A LITTLE DIRTY

fiberglass cracks?

take it off.. sand down to get it to set correctly.

fiberglass sheets or fiberglass bondo type stuff

sand down a bunch and then do it all over again in a few weeks

that's the right way to fix it and ensure a stronger bumper. You can have your bumper off, you just don't want to ;)

You asked how to fix it, but the right way of doing it is too hard for you.

Duct tape it. Superglue it. Drill holes in both sides of the crack and criss cross zipties.

If you dont like the answer youre going to get, dont ask the damn question.

Drive around without a bumper for a day... Who cares? Take the time to do it right the first time around.
