Is there some way that the front bumper on a C3 can be patched up? There is a section on mine where it is pushed in. Is there a type of filler that can be used since the bumper is like a Flex-Lite plastic? If not, where would be the place that I could get the best deal on a new bumper?
I am sure there is some kind of material to repair the bumper cover but for the cost of a new cover you will save more time replacing the cover verses man hours of labor to patch up the old one. Either way it is going to have to come off of the car anyways. Just my $.02 cents worth.

Yep, there is material for repair. It's a 2-part epoxy type stuff. I'll have to look back on my receipts to remember the name. It works great and desn't come off. It's a bear to sand though, cost $35. problem is the bumper is flexible and will start to ripple in the sun again after some period of time. For the work I put into it I should have bought a flexiglass bumper for the front too. I have hours into it and it's not as nice as the rest of the car.

most of the time there is quite a but of labor involved in fitting a new bumper too. I wish you could just unbox one and throw it on, my life would be much easier right now
