Grinder blade may break and cause fatal damage to people standing near. if it struck between that bumper. Using a grinder for Grinding or cutting a plastic or carbon fiber material the friction will melt the material and tries to grab the grinder blade as a result the blade will split in parts and cause fatal injury.

I was very skeptical that this was going to be even remotely as good as it turned out. I'm not a body guy but I've been in the Auto industry for several years and have seen a variety of repairs. Many repairs similar to this look like garbage. But this was a very well done job. The only downside is the amount of labor involved just to save a few dollars on a bumper cover but I can understand why someone would do this. In the end you know you did a great job and save the customer a little bit of money. Great work guys!

Extremely thorough and detailed instructions as well as tips and tricks that will certainly give me the confidence to tackle my second bumper repair. The first one was before KZbin and turned out being a mess and a complete failure. Not to mention that I bought so much more of everything than I needed. I ultimately just took a hacksaw to the damn thing so that it wasn’t dragging on the road and called it a day. Thank you for taking the time to share this!

You need to use the type of mesh tape with adhesive on one side to enable it to stick to the surface so that it doesn't move all around as the epoxy is being applied. Optimally you can use fiberglass cloth. Otherwise you can use spray glue on the tape. Then you can apply the epoxy with a stiff, disposable brush instead of a stick to work it into the contours. You also must mix the Bondo/hardener with wiping strokes and not by whipping or stirring because that introduces air bubbles into the Bondo mix. But overall an excellent job.

I've worked on cars for quite a few years and I saw a few things wrong with this video. 1) Don't use a grinder as a sander, there's different types of sandpaper and they're numbered, the higher the number, the more rough it is. 2) if you fold the bondo instead of stirring it, you'll have way less pinholes and you won't have to go over it more than once. That's pretty much it, I am impressed with the painting, have a nice day 😊

Why not use some over spray (different color) as an indicator for low spots?

Aaron Anderson These are not professionals.... and they used primer to indicate high and low spots a rather than a guide coat. The materials used are not flexible and would definitely not meet any insurance standards

Well, I'm here for two reasons. 1: I fucked my bumper up when a crash barrier suddenly jumped in the way. 2: My bumper is definitely not going to look as good as I am not really too experienced with body repair, but alot of good pointers guys! Subbed! :)

That is an ignorant comment. If it looks good, and is structurally strong, it is fine. Check CarFax anyhow. You get ripped off through ignorance.

I have a chuck about 2x3 inches missing on the bumper top edge. I have extra bumper material from a junk yard. I guess I will cut it close as I can get it and then use your methods. Any suggestions for a missing edge piece would be so appreciated. You earned my sub. Great job. So helpful and money savings. They also do not even sell my Lexus SC430 bumper new anywhere.

There are some Mexican body men in Queens, NYC who use an electric space heater to uniformly soften the cover when the corners have been dented by bad parallel parkers. They pop it out without any additional body work or painting. It's a miracle, a miracle I tell you!

there is a product from a company called tap plastics here in california which is specific to ABS which is what most of these plastic products are made from its a solvent that works 100 times better than any epoxy plus it glues the plastic back together,you can use lego bricks in a jar add the solvent and make a paste that you can use just like bondo glass ive fixed countless motorcycle body parts with this process you can use stips of thin abs sheet that is rough on one side that way you have a rough surface for the solvent

To anyone thinking of doing this please remeber that pedestrian impact zones ( if you follow the bonnet and wing gap and draw a line down the bumper ) are made to flex on impact and absorb energy in case of a accident , therefore the bumper should be repaired back to its orignal depth and fexibility . A bumper is not a cosmetic additon it serves a purpose. If it is made to strong it could do much more damage if a child runs out in front of your car and a collision happens .

my rear quarter-panel and bumper has a small damage, is it necessary to fade paint partially with rear door or rear hatch or both? thank you. I wonder if insurance company adjuster will allow to fade to both and he does not and I should fight with them for proper repair

Excellent video! If something like this happens to my car I will watch this video again and follow your steps exactly. It's good to be able to fix things like this yourself...even if you can do some PDR as well with cheap tools you can buy from Ebay. Now I am going to subscribe to your channel because you explain things very well.. Oh...one question. What about if you have the ultra sonic sensors in the bumper?
