    Front Blitz got busted

    i was sleeping this morning , whne my little brother wanted my car keys.
    he wanted to move my car so he can wash his...i guess taht was a bad idea.
    i heard him starting up my car and later on..i heard a loud CRACK..i looked out the wondow and i saw him kneeling in front of the car. i was like F*&^%...
    he later called me and i saw the damage....

    that sucks man. I just finished taking off my full lip kit because the front and rear cracked in half. the corolla looks like a grocery getter again.....oh well. I'll post pics later on.

    any ideas on what you are going to replace it with if its not repairable?

    but fiberglass is easily fixable compared to urethane.

    Stock bumper with lip FTW

    EDIT: Fiberglass is also very brittle in colder weather and thats another reason why I dont use fiberglass. You obviously dont need to worry about that when its 70deg+ year round in FL.

    why don't you go with the vinylflex or carbonflex material for the bumper, just expect to may nearly twice as much though.
