Well, heres the thing, since its fiberglass, people has been telling me, its not worth fixing it. Once fixing fiberglass it becomes more fragile. On the other hand, others say fix it and reinforce it. So im kinda inna bad position now... Most likely, i will have to go with a new bumper. Dont worry ill have tons of pics when the make-over is done for u guys... So i guess i wont make this into a DIY for coilovers...
