Got backed into today....

So today I had a big math test. Parking at the college is bad, of course. Drivers are worse. Anyways finished the math test came out to a big gash in my front bumper. Looks like a truck with a trailer hitch backed into me.... Awesome to come to after a long stressful test. Any ideas on how I should tackle this fix?

Well... Maybe you can buy just that part. Should be considerably cheaper than a whole bumper

Looks like $100 Front Bumper Valance TO1095199 Textured Matte Dark Gray 2007 2009 Toyota Tundra | eBay Kinda just want to fix it instead of paying for a new one. That way I can save for a Road Armour bumper.

That really sucks........I'd be ready to kick some ass!

Guy was gone and no note. Thinking he hit me while he was backing in and I was inside taking my test. Then just left. :crying:

If you're planning on getting a bumper anyways... just deal with it. If it bothers you that much... get something to cover the hole, secure it (glue probably) smooth it out as much as possible, rubberized undercoat the piece... probably about $10-15 and an hour or so of time

That's what I was thinking. "flatten it out, hold with epoxy (maybe?), then touch up the paint" not sure if the epoxy is good. May just plasti-dip the Valance as well.

Yea... Fill the hole/flatten out the plastic, then plastidip

Sounds good, thanks guys. I'll post a fixed pic when I get it done. Probably this weekend.
