So, I had a dream..
If you bought a front bumper from a similar vehicle, or any vehicle really, could you cut the back off of your original front bumper, do the same with the aftermarket bumper. .. cut the middle out of the after market bumper to fit width. kind of sew them together (bondo, superglue.. whatever) then make a mold out the hybrid, and use fiberglass to make a complete piece? |

joining your OEM bumper to fiberglass is a very big pain in the rear.
fiberglass and polyurethane do not bond well together and have different flexibility which makes it a bad combo |
