Sadly just done an incredibly stupid thing and driven into one of my wooden garage doors puncturing my front bumper!
Wondered if anyone has a nice front bumper they might like to sell ( following an upgrade etc? )?
Even better if it were in Onyx Black - I know beggars can’t be choosers.
Thanks, David

Sorry about your misfortune, David.

Fibreglass ( I assume that is the construction) is a very easily repairable material, so unless you have misshapen the panel badly, a repair might be the easiest solution.

Years ago my son made a surfboard, with a perfect surface finish.
At the time I thought it would require a mould, but not so.

indeed fibreglass is an easily repaired material. But I'm pretty sure the Vantage bumpers are moulded polyurethane

Yes, it’s moulded polypropylene I’m afraid and once misshapen can only be cut out I think making the hole even bigger.
