Default front bumper?....

well I was coming out of the mall.....and found that my front bumper and been hit....no note nothing, there is a "chunk" missing to the left(facing the vehicle) of the driver side fog light and a chip where it was hit. My question is...can this be "fixed" or do I need to repace the whole bumper?

If you still have the piece, it can be repaired, but if the piece is in a high stress area, it should be replaced as I can guarantee problems will come back to haunt. I would check out the cost of new, I'm not sure on the cost of new, but repair can get up there quite fast in this situation, and if that's the case, it will most likely be replace. Do you have some pics?

Well I have done some research, its a sunday so its not easy will have to wait until tomorrow to talk to body shops. I can get one off of ebay new, painted to match for 1000 including shipping, orrr I can buy a used one off of ebay with some scuffs in the paint, which should be fine since it is black and my aspen is silver so it would have to be repainted anyway, that one is 285 plus shipping. The problem is im in canada and it was about -20c and it shattered so there are alot of small pieces...lol oh well live and learn...

$285 doesn't sound bad. I would still check with the Stealership. You might be pleasantly surprised, or you may fall off your chair!! lol I would also get a price from a bumper reman place, then take the price to the dealership. Not sure about where you are, but here in Alberta there is a program for covers/ headlights to meet the AFM or REman prices.

hmmm, funny dealer told me 660, called a guy i know that owns a bodyshop, he called the dealer, he will give it to me 4 530. when he checked online through the chrysler repair site they were showing a price of 585(retail)....not impressed!(with the dealer i mean)! Checked a few reman sites but I could,t find any in ontario, found 1 in bc but they don;t ship out of province.....so im going with the 530 from the body shop. It turned out the skuffs were more than skuffs on the one off of ebay......
