I hope your paint hasnt faded too much, so that when the bumper is painted, you wont notice a color difference. | | | | | 09-18-2007, 11:58 PM | #4 | | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2006 Location: Westfield, IN Posts: 1,335 |

Make sure you use a flex agent on the bumper (available at the paint store) or it will crack with the least bump | | | | | 10-08-2007, 05:35 AM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Auburn, WA Posts: 1,814 |

looks great.
i need to do a repair job on my front bumper too.
the previous owner smacked a parking block and there is a nasty crack that runs through the drivers side fog light area.
you may have just motivated me this morning.
right on! __________________
