Default Urethane Front Bumper Cover

hey, i have a fiberglass bomex body kit, and just recently i was driving through a small town, when i bottomed out real bad and totally smashed my front right side of my front bumper, so i need a new one, needless to say lol... but to be smart about it and not have the same thing happen twice, i figured i need to get a polyurethane front bumper cover, or some other material that is flexible... i've looked high and low and havent found more than 1 or 2 different styles front bumper covers that either everyone else has (blitz) or that i just plain dont like... if anyone could please help me with these, it would be greatly appreciated! thanks

If you can't find one then it's likely not made. I recommend getting air shox and raising the car up a lil higher when driving if you can't handle the low stance

Actually I've seen a few FRP kits for my sentra on EBay those seem like THEY might be fairly sturdy and easily repaired if something were to happen I'd look into those as well.

haha, i can handle the low stance, i just had three other people in the car, and i really just couldnt avoid it, it was a matter of a steep hill, not a pot hole or anything, but hey, thanks for the info everyone... heres a couple of pics of it... ugh

Yeowch... Actually you could probably fix that. A little tigers' hair and some TLC you could fix it up I'm sure.

looks like it is repairable here is the catch with a urathane body kit they are more flexable but if the get a tear you have to throw it away very bery hard to fix as to fiber glass any joe can buy some fiberglass matting and some resin and go to town and sand it to look like new just wear gloves and a resperator.

yeah, im a body guy, so fixing it was def. an option... but i bought the whole kit off ebay for like $200 (ugh... i know) so it doesnt fit right at all anyway, so taking the time to fix a front bumper that still is gonna look like crap after u do all the work... just isnt worth it haha

LOL So true. Thus the reason I don't buy body parts from E-Bay.
