I'm all for ziptie love and preserving your isht for as long as possible, but F all that noise. Once the thing just crumbled liked that I would have called it a day and gotten a new bumper.

Yeah the first repair wasn't bad but there was slightly to much damage to pull off the look the second time.

I just googled that and it's sick. But that seems so dangerous, no eye protection...?

It looks like stitches. That's crazy to use that many though.
