Need New Bumper

[njjuliano]

So, after a good stretch of uneventful ownership, I've got this mysterious damage on my front bumper. Have no idea from where, almost looks like someone kicked it. Hate to see but it looks like a full bumper replace, doesnt it?

Eh, that might be fixed. They'll use a mesh wire to 'staple' it or 'stitch' it from the inside, seal the front crack, sand and repaint. I had a crack in my bumper recently from someone backing into my car (not that bad though) and that's what they did. Didn't need a new bumper. These bumpers are plastic so unless you're missing a huge chunk it's likely fixable.

I paid $1,100 for bumper repair, full front and rear bumper re-spray with OEM paint, and blend front of both front fender due to rock chips.

hmmm... if theyre going to mesh it, then im going out of pocket. but if adjuster goes for full replace, might as well hunt for sport front.

just cant figure what would do that. came back to the car with that damage after the car was parked.
