    Thanks!
    I am trying to work out how to fix my previously repaired,.broken again Frontschürze/bumper, the bottom part. I have all the broken of parts, and was going to repair with fibre glass repair kit and thin metal strips for support, from the backside.
    My mechanic tells me pop-riveting a support brace at the back is the way to go, as the fibreglass chemicals don't work well with the plastic of the bumper. The riveting also then means lots of filling, sanding and repaint..
    What is your -or other folks'- experience with this kind of cosmetic plastic repair?

      Thank you for your comment. For sure with pop rivets it won´t move, but how ugly this will be. Usually , you drill the parts of bumper and you hold them together with with ties. Then you use a good product to bond them together. Once dry, you cut the cable ties and you sand well. Maybe you will to add more bonding. Once all sanded, you paint the primer and then the paint of your choice.
