as some of you may know I got into a bit of an accident a few months back. I recently took a trip down to the bodyshop to get an idea of how much the repair would cost. he gave me a great price but also claimed that he could repair the damaged rear bumper. now as far as I know the plastic/urethane composite the bumper covers consist of can not be repaired very easily. does this seem at all questionable to you guys?

here are the pictures:

take it off the car
you can probably use a small peice of metal from HD
and screw each end of it on either side of the crack at the most top point possible
then use fiberglass and glass the inside and out of the crack to hold it in place once that dries and hardens remove the metal brace that held the crack together and even...glass where the brace was inside and out
lil bondo
sand smooth repaint

if you want ghost i'll meet up with you and probably be able to do the fix on a saturday or sumthing
