bran 808 can glue that back up hahaha jk

 

Those cracks look like they're beyond saving, but I'd ask Bran808 about it.

 

Mike, you're mean. Or am I.....since I laughed at the comment you just made?

I may need to agree with Ryan on this one. For what it's worth, my thinking/mentality is from a body shop perspective, and although it may not be the most popular responses, keep that in mind.

I wouldn't really bother with the rear bumper. If you factor in labor costs, materials, and time......easier to just replace it. As for the front bumper, it looks pretty borderline to me. It can be repaired, but how much time/labor/materials is your breaking point before you replace it? Tough call, and if you don't mind the time it takes, then it may be worth while. However, most shops would tell you to replace them. Good luck

 

brah..........hellooooooo!!! foam glass resin sandpapah primah paint!!!!! hahaha whuddup toot toot!!

 

Man that sucks.. Thanks for the replys, warren where can I get those supplies? Like foam glass and resin? Imma jus pick um up and try at my house. Haha guess now I gotta see if anybody get front and rear bumpers for sale... Anybody let me know! Shooties

Haha guess gotta start saving $$money$$. Prolly check out kit worx if anything. Damn I liked my chargespeed kit.

 

Ouch dude!! Sorry to hear about your kit!! Thats why I stay away from anything Fiberglass or partial fiberglass. Hate working with mixing fiber resin because of the strong stench and laying fiberglass mat. PolyUrethane dude is the way to go bro!!
