    Default Dumb Mistake

    About a week ago when I was taking out my tranny I had to drop the exhaust of course. Well the rear muffler caught the rear bumper and broke off a piece of it on the lower area of the bumper. What should I do? Should I repair the bumper or locate another rear one. If repairing is the answer, What is the best way to go about doing this i.e. type of fiberglass, filler, etc.

    how big is the piece broken? do u still have it? i did mine with epoxy (5$), sandpaper(had it) and black paint( 10$). if u do it right it won't be visible. Or u can buy a new bumper from the wrekers( 200$ round here) and get it color-matched for an extra 100

    the area broken is probably about 2" X 5" and I cannot find the pieces
