Ride: EF II XR6

Location: Tamworth
NSW, Australia

A few Months ago i nudged the corner of my car on a trolley bay causing the passenger side edge of my car to droop a bit more as the bolt holding that corner was ripped out.

Yesterday i was backing off a gutter and the corner caught on the lip causing the bottom half of my bumper to be separated from the top half.

So the Question begs, how can i fix it? if i use araldyte or something of similar strenth is there any chance i will be able ot glue to two halves together. I seem to recall amber doing something similar to her old Gli

help????

the eyes say yes, but the wallet says noooo. I don't mind the EF front anyway, and venom kits are a bit much.

Auto Plastic Repairs, 150 Gilmore Rd Queanbeyan, should be able to weld it up for you.

No need to plastic weld, they are glued on with a type of urethane.
