BUMPER REPAIR & REFINISHING
If the crack is in a flat area on the bumper, the repairs are fairly simple and require less time and material – meaning they are likely to cost less, too. But, when the damage involves a vehicle’s style lines, curved areas or molded sections around lights or intakes, it’s a different story. Repairs to these special areas require additional care which translates to more time and more resources – usually meaning more money. That’s why a solution offered by us as a professional auto body shop provides a detailed cost/benefit analysis for each job. While in most every case, a plastic bumper crack repair us possible, it some it isn’t practical.
The best option
In the majority of situations, though, a plastic bumper dent or crack repair is the best option. Here are a few reasons why:

- Repair is quicker – making the basic repair is often quicker than ordering and replacing the bumper.
- Overall cost is less – A traditional body shop, in many cases, recommends replacing a bumper which costs must more than most repairs.
- A true “green” option – making repairs to your plastic bumper keeps additional materials out of landfills.
- A real benefit for older models – A plastic bumper crack repair may be the only option for an older model vehicle or one that’s no longer made where parts become increasingly expensive and hard to obtain – if available at all.
