Ok so since my front sport bumper cover was dented and cracked i wanted to finally fix it.
- First thing i did was remove the bumper cover.
- Next i took a heat gun and warmed up the plastic and got it as smooth as possible.
- After i did that i sanded it down with 80 grit.
- I then took body filler and applied multiple thin coats.
- After the first coat of filler it sanded back down with 80 grit.
- I then applied 2 more thin layers sanding in between with 180 grit.
- Then i applied a black prime and misted it with white to see the low and high spots.
- Then i sanded more untill smooth and all white was gone.
- Next i scuffed up the whole bumper with a red scotch pad.
- Finally i primed the whole thing with black.
- I also cut off the bottom spoiler.
- And i filled the holes from the front licencse plate bracket.
So all in all i have less than $50 buck in supplies and the bumper cover looks good as new. I left it primed for now gonna bedline it and the rockers soon thought.
