how to fix this?

[J03]

i recently put my bumper on, and theres some cracks on it that am already aware of, its not new, bought it off my friend. how can i fix this?
theres a crack on each side... maybe fibreglass or whatever can fix this?






what my bumper looks like now, the tie rap is to secure the mesh while the silicon bonds behind the bumper

anything from 100-250 i reckon depending of bodyshop get a few quotes from different places, not sure what area u are from but put a post and see if anyone can recommend u a good bodyshop in your area. ucos u dont want a cheep job done on it cos i made that mistake with a similar repair and the paint started cracking from where they repaired it with fiberglass.

Id say that ^^ purely because if any of the brackets are snapped the bumper wont fit nicely, and if its not repaired properly the cracks will carry on...
But take it to a Bshop witha gd reputation for repair jobs dont attack it yourself.
