Everyday, bumper recyclers recondition bumper covers and then sell the reconditioned bumper covers to body shops. Buying reconditioned OEM bumper covers from a bumper recycler saves money for the insurance company and the customer. And, because it is a reconditioned OEM bumper cover, you can be confident that the bumper cover will fit. Aftermarket bumper covers often do not fit well.
This bumper was damaged in a common, real-world accident; a dog ran out in front of it. (Don't worry...the dog is fine, and it has learned its lesson and does not chase cars anymore!) You can see that this type of damage is repairable, and the repaired bumper is much less expensive than a new OEM bumper.
This video shows how to weld the broken pieces back together, remove dents and high spots, and repair a crack in the fog light area.
