I'm considering plasti-dip, as it's cheaper than painting the whole damn car, and it will look decent for at least up until show, which is all I care about :p

But after talking to a local distributor, it may be hard to get...

I'm not too sure if I trust my self painting it, as I've never done that before...

Have a shot at repairing it yourself. Fibreglass repair is pretty easy.Basically batch it from the back and then bog it from the front. Id use fibreglass reinforced bog on the front though.A bit stronger.Is available from most auto stores.

Tempting, but $150 isn't much to hand over to get it done...
I'll have a think about it, I've got a week until I'm paid, so that's my thinking time :p

You don't use fibre glass it a plastic which means plastic welded. Then you can just get a sprayer to just touch up the areas that needit. Or full bar resprayed for 3-400. Might as well the bumper is not colour matched/blended anyway!
