I don’t know how many people seen it but my bumper has always been cracked. I cheaply fixed it for the time being with some screws and well, not important how I did it before, but it covered it well from 10ft. So with the Bumper off the car now I decide it was a good Time to start on fixing it a lot less ghetto. And it only cost me $19 and 5 hours worth of work.

1. I started by taking off my old ghetto rigged screws.
2. Sanded and prepped the area.
3. Mixed the Fiberglass resin.
4. Spread liquid resin apply cloth, repeat as needed.
5. Wait for it to dry.
6. Bevel edge and fill with resin(wait for that to dry too)
7. Sand
8. Sand
9. Sand
10. And more resin
11. Sand some more
12. Prime ( I will paint it soon.)  
It is not professional but it looks good enough for me, and it was cheap.  
Here are some pics…
