Crack in Bumper (body coloured)

Alfie 168 · 21-02-2007, 12:18

There's a nasty crack in the body coloured front bumper of our felicia where 'someone'

bumped a high kerb. Are they repairable at reasonable cost given the low value of the vehicle, or is it a new bumper/respray job. Its the only body defect on the car so it would be nice to fix it myself if it is possible. Its temporarily held together by a clamp,but doesn't waggle about or anything.

just got a new mk2 bumper. from butts or bawtry. £80+vat. it comes blank, so you need to find yourself a painter. get it painted, them fit it yourself.

Thanks for that. I did look at their list and couldn't decide which bumper mine was. Its still going to end up as a £150+ shout, and as a Yorkshireman (currently expat in Lincs) that really hurts. Its well worth knowing though so I appreciate the info.
