Need help with a bumper crack, FAST!!!!! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

1derboy16 · 02-24-2007, 07:48 PM

My friend just cracked the bumper of his friends car a little bit, its not super bad but he need to cover it up or make it less noticeable, any ideas that he can do to cover it up at home? Its a black car btw.

S13-Silvia · 02-24-2007, 07:58 PM

If you are looking for a super quick fix put a little black electric tape over the crack.

dakine240 · 02-24-2007, 09:45 PM

bondo and gloss black krylon spray paint

*Jonnie Fraz* · 02-24-2007, 10:03 PM

Tell your friend to be a Man and admit what he did, and offer to get it fixed.

oh yeah they do work man really do work

Addicted2Kouki · 02-24-2007, 10:29 PM

put a sticker over it.

Brian · 02-24-2007, 10:32 PM

Step 1 - Don't let this "friend" be a dickbag. If you broke it, speak up. Don't be an asshole.

Step 2 - Figure it out.

Ragnarok043 · 02-24-2007, 10:36 PM

i would plastic weld it back together

bardabe · 02-24-2007, 10:41 PM

gorrilla glue and spray paint.

that would be fixing it, or just let him know u cracked it andu will fix it.

BBSilvia · 02-24-2007, 10:49 PM

fiberglass repair kit and black touch up paint

utahdrifter · 02-24-2007, 10:56 PM

there is always zipties

s13gold · 02-25-2007, 04:44 AM

is it fiberglass or polyurethane?

dopeyx27 · 02-25-2007, 05:06 AM

Pretty sure its fiberglass, polyurethane takes alot to break; if it even can. lol

kY.gordon · 02-25-2007, 05:13 AM

1. tell your friend to be a man and admit it (unless its a girl then be a woman). if you are really a friend of the owners, you would tell him.
2. offer to fix it all options above
3. don't be an ass and do whats right next time.

240trainee · 02-25-2007, 07:50 AM

Yea, I can tell you what, I personally wouldn't car if a friend but a crack in my fiberglass, since my car is low and streets are shitty, but if a freind broke my stuff then half fixed it and gave it back hoping I wouldn't notice, I'd be PISSED. just my .02

i've cracked my share of poly bumpers. go to autozone or walmart, get yourself some fiberglass mesh, resin, bondo (i prefer Dynalite), and a can of duplicolor, and do it right. ~50 bucks in materials is a small price to pay for being a dick and breaking your friend's car.

sr20det4mys13 · 02-25-2007, 04:58 PM

nah.. i think before you do anything to the car you tell him and see if thats what he wants to do.. cuz if u do a crappy job and not tell him.. i think thats worst, cuz then he is gunna be stuck with a big gloppy front end.. ask him if its cool you do it before u do a thing yourself.. latah

How about you be a man and pay me back. Funny how the hipocrate gives out moral advice.

randyjordan · 02-25-2007, 06:46 PM

just have him stand in front of the crack when he returns the car.

or

use touchup paint ..or..just have your friend admit that he cracked it

Be a man. [russell peters chinese accent]

infinitexsound · 02-25-2007, 08:02 PM

fiberglass resin, fiberglass mesh,apply it, let it dry block it, bondo, block it, prime it, sand it,paint it.

Ricks15 · 02-25-2007, 08:10 PM

If its a ebay copy kit I would not worry about the cracks just leave it alone.

lilredstiffy · 02-25-2007, 09:32 PM

i would kick someone's ass if they tried to hide the fact that they broke something i own

if it was a friend i would appreciate if they just told me outright. as long as it wasn't intentional id forgive them

McRussellPants · 02-25-2007, 09:51 PM

I broke lilredstiffy's heart, and he forgave me.

Matej · 02-25-2007, 11:06 PM

Make up a story about a hit-and-run.

CA18_S13 · 02-25-2007, 11:18 PM

Don't make up a story about a hit and run cause may be he will look in to it. Possibility of getting caught. Why lie might as well own up and be a man. If this is a 240 this is why i wouldn't let any one borrow my car. Not even my dad drives my car unless i am with him.

Dousan_PG · 02-25-2007, 11:20 PM

pussies

be honest
shit happens
flybert did this to my car
haha
funniest shit ever.
life goes on.

Hopefully he didn't take me seriously.
As long as it's just a crack, life goes on.
