I managed to trash my front bumper today and the only one i could find the same on ebay was £260.

Im a bit gutted, chavvy as it was i kinda liked it on the car, so im looking for something similar if anyone has one? if i cant get anything cheap enough though i guess i will go with stock and try to get the skirts off the car too and bring it back to a stock look.

How much do you think i would be looking at? its worse in the flesh as its almost hanging of really, the whole chunk along the lines is loose.

don't know how much just buy a fibreglass repair kit and give it some reinforcement on the back and use a skim of filler on the front

Is it a stock front bumper Dbo? do you have a link to a pic?
And i may give the repair a go, but im not too good with things like that. nice to know it should be easy to get it sorted though, thanks guys!

Real easy repair, reinforce from the back and filler the front, then respray
Or just drill holes and cross stitch with cable ties, drift car style, till you find a replacement
