it looks good fresh, but my conern with that would be long term. It’s pretty hard to get a permanent fix on flexible plastic with a rigid bond like fiberglass. How has it been holding up?

As (badnewsmini) said it looks great, but I also question how long it will last. It for me is just a temporary thing. I am going to by a new bumper for it early spring time.
