sorry to hear 'bout that juno. main thing is that no one got hurt.

on the bright side is that we did not install the FMIC yesterday so it wasn't damaged.

whoa, sounds like you had a FMIC too?

I hope only the bumper was badly damaged... man that sucks if your FMIC got pounded along with the bumper

I honestly don't know about fiberglass bumpers and how to fix/prep them, but when I worked with fiberglass, it was very hard to get a good final surface to paint. Hopefully those guys at your bodyshop can do a good job.

Glad you're ok dude and sorry about your car.

pardon my ignorance, but what is an FMIC? I have a suspicion its a fuel management component but indulge me if you will on its actual name / function?

FMIC= front mount inter-cooler. .....defenition:usually an aftermarket intercooler mounted in the front of the radiator between the front bumper. ie:its comes stock on the neon srt4 and the evo viii.

Juno,
If he can repair it then have it done but don't paint it until AFTER we trim it for the FMIC.
