Default CRACK!!!! in front bumber and massive other problems with the body

my 97 gst has a huge crack in the front bumber and its almost ready to completely go im trying to post some pictures on my profile but they arent there yet. i have heard a few things from refiberglassing it to just buying a new front bumper. and my body kit is all molded together and it is a really crap job any tips or ideas. and if i should just replace the front bumper any good links to sites with cool front bumpers im sick of my blitz front end. thanks guys

Ive been looking for YEARS for a 97-98 Talon front bumper... I must have ate up like 2gigs of Ebays bandwidth over this amount of time JUST for that... Noone ever parts with em!

i always did like the stock one. so there would be no point in trying to fix the crack just replace the bumper and repaint my whole car?

Fixing a crack in a fiberglass bumper is much akin to putting a band aid on a broken arm.
