body shop can fix it, ive also seen them glued at home with special plastic glue that bond an hold up very well.

the thing is u gotta find a shop that knows what there doing or it will tear again. It is better if u get another bumper but finding one is a complete pain in the ass even tho i recently had 3 laying around. My buddy has a 02 trans am that has about a 1foot or larger tear across the bottom that hes having repaired due to lack of being able to find a new bumper for a decent price. Talk to the shop see how confidant they are at being able to do the repair.
thanks my wheels need redone too there peeling an pitting pretty bad, just put a 02 front clip on it tho so im trying to see what direction im headed with it or sell it.

I had a tear in mine and apparently cracks.. But body shop fixed that. Looks like new! I forgot to tell them to fill in the license plate holes though... wish they'd called and asked or filled them in anyway -- no one here has front license plates :cry:
