Bumper VS Concrete Block
Please save your criticism because I think I've been punished enough already If you take a look at the first pic, you see those concrete blocks? They werent there went I left to work this morning... Any idea how much it would cost to get this fixed? Edit: A bit of a good news for me, the dent buffed itself out Last edited by GloriousJ; 06-07-2013 at 08:24 PM. |

If you remove some of that hanging bumper debris and use touch-up paint the damage won't be all that noticeable. A car this low is going to have scratches like that that on the undersides after a while anyway.
To have it done professionally will cost you several hundred for a minor repair/respray. |

Not worth fixing imo, throw on some touch up paint if you're self conscious. You probably can't notice it unless you're looking at it straight on within 5-10 ft.

Buy a lip that will cover that area. Kill two birds with one stone

I am willing to burn a few hundred bucks if that's what it takes, but I'm wondering if i need to replace the entire bumper or not |

Man that sucks... I would probably look into getting it fixed too since you know it will be there and, if your like me, will probably bug you.
Whoever put this concrete blocks there should pay for it |

Here is a thread that has a list of body kits and lips. Take a look and see which one you like. Some will cover the area and look really good. Some might just be enough to cover the area, too.
