had a bloke knock on my door asking if i had a spare green rear bumper as he had reversed his car into a trailer and the hitch had punched a good size hole in it! well ive got a red and a blue one but he wasnt haveing it :(
anyway got me thinking what are the bumpers made off?are they just some sort of plastic and how would you repair them? is it a case of just getting a fiberglass kit or do you need some special stuff?

Normally plastic and only have to withstand a impact of 2.5mph

You can use fibreglass or plastic weld, which ever you prefer.
