Just wondering if anyone has tried to repair their front bumper? Like with fiberglass or some other means of holding it together, besides zipties. The front lip on my skyline is cracked, and I pulled a sticker off which in turn peeled the paint. So can I fix it and paint it or just bite it and buy a new one? any idea?

I’m pretty sure someone on here has done it before :roll:

I would recommend getting some kitty-hair stuff (its a mix of bondo and glass fibers). And if you’re asking how to use fiberglass use the search.

You can get bumper repair kits from automotive stores or from body shop supply shops. I have done it before it worked well. As far as paint peeling after your repair you will need to get it repainted anyway.

yeah I know how to fibreglass, I’ve done fenders and skirts before. Just never tried to repair urathane bumpers. Until now. I am gonna give it a go this weekend see how it turns out. Can’t wait for that smell. Then I’ll take it in to get re-painted. I am just lacking the skills to do a decent black paint job!

Thanks guys

I guess so it can be fixed remember they take molds of the stock [bumper cover](http://www.thepartsbin.com/autoparts/bumper_cover.html) for some cosmetic mods like putting a chin under it, I guess it’s repairable but with professional help.
