Hi,

I have a small crack and scruff around the toe eye on my front bumper. I'm trying to get hold of one through eBay e.t.c but have had no luck. I've been quoted around £400 by the local garage for a brand new bumper but just wondered if anyone could give some pointers on where else to look?

My Fiesta is the Dark grey colour (torque grey?) but from what I can tell I can only buy them primed (unless from salvage) so would need to pay for the spray up.

thanks in advance,

Matt

Have you thought about getting it reaired ?

I damaged my front bumper a while back , resulting ina crack and missing paint. A mobile repair guy came to my house put a tent up over the car and had it filled and painted in 90 minutes.

Cost: £60.

Look at options before forking out £200-£300.

having a crack filled will not work as it will most likely vibrate and re crack, the best and most practical meathod would be to look the yellow pages or local business phone book and check for a plascic weilders, remove the bumper/few bolts each side accesed from under the front wheels after you remove the splash gards/inner wheel arch.. once you have your bumper off then leave it to have the crack weilded then find a painters/body shop to finnish and paint the bumper, rebuild your grilles etc back in then fit your freashly painted bumper back on the car.. if you get a new bumper you have to unbolt and rebolt the new one and have it painted any way so few quid for a plastic weild versus 400 odd for a new bumper.. and if your toe eye cover doesnt fit nice any more then a new ones only about a fiver in ford.
