How to repair cracked bumper?

[Pipps]

Someone backed into me in a car park and my bumper now has a crack.

What should I do to fix the problem and to stop stop it getting any worse?

Get the person who backed into you to fix it?

For the price of replacement parts and considering its fairly easy to remove I'd be looking for a replacement bumper.

The other option could be to remove the bumper then remove any particularly bad bits of damage with a sander or something similar, although looking at that picture you wouldn't probably need too.

Then roughen up the inner side with abit of emery cloth of the damaged area and then fibreglass it for some strength and filler/smooth and repaint the outside. The fibreglass won't want to particularly bond with the bumper but for a small patch it should do the trick. Like I said, I'd be looking out for a new bumper.

This happened to mine, still need to sort, im just gonna get a better bumper as can normally pick up for £20 or so.
So I would do that, saves all the hassle of sanding and painting ect

You won't repair that well I'm afraid. It will just keep popping the filler on the line of the bumper.

I've had a front bumper go on that line, been trying to repair it for months but it keeps going again.

Yeh like grant said youd be hard pressed to repair that in yhe seem aswell for what it would cost to get it repaired youd be better off buying one out of a scrappy cheeper...

Thanks for the input, guys. I guess I need to wait for a black Phase 3 to go breaking, with both it's front and rear bumpers intact!
