Rear bumper damage

vivanapoli806 · 08-02-2014, 10:27 AM

So I backed into my other car on accident last night. You guys think this could be popped out so it looks little better or do I have to get an entire new bumper ?

Looks like you will need a new cover. Even if you could pop it out it won't look right.

Take off siffuser, see if there is room to pop it out
Next use a heat gun, far away from the surface not to damage paint - pop it out, buff it/touch up paint/quick detail

Your taillight may need replacing too

Yeah my headlight is cracked. I just don't want to have to drop $600 on a jumper right now. I'm going to see if I can get it popped out so it just looks little better for now
