Body work advice
Dear Fellow Forum Members.
Well I did it. While trying to pull into my tightly packed garage last night I tore a chunk about 6 by 2 inches off the front bumper (nose) right by the turn signal light. I caught one of the pegs on my sons Harley and it ripped a piece right out of there.
I assume that this is something that cannot be fixed? Patched by a body man. In other words a need to get a entire new front bumper piece and have it painted to match or get a used one from the junk yard and have that painted to match?
Velocity was slow so it is unlikely there was any other damage.
Any advice here?
