crx front bumper

[tjbreitmeier]

My CRX got hit last night at the end of college parkway and the person who hit it drove off. the passenger fender was pushed in, the bumper skin was knocked loose tearing the mounting holes, and the marker light lens was knocked off. I'm looking for a bumper skin or just some pointers on how to reattach the existing one, and if anyone knows who hit my car, let me know or just beat them senseless for me, I don't even need to know about it. there wasn't enough damage for me to get upset about or claim insurance, car still drives fine. I'm upset about the fact that people around here are that dishonest to drive off after ramming another person's car.

Sorry to hear that, I hate hit and skippers. Happened to me when I had my GTO. Nothing like paying for other peoples mess ups.

You were in it when this happened? I have a white front bumper it's a little rough.

driving down rosemarr. how rough is that bumper dave? the holes ripped out on mine is the biggest issue i think. i'll just primer whatever i get for now. priced a new bumper skin at ABP for $93. I have z3 fenders i planned on putting on one of these days anyway and a set of jdm marker lights, so it's not a big deal for me to throw down on a bumper. i'm just glad the dumb ass hit me at the angle they did. hit right in front of the tire and just bent the fender up underneath where the resonator box had been and knocked the bumper skin loose. does not appear to have hurt the rim or anything but i have a new spindle and axles just in case and hopefully would be able to find a 13 fairly easy.

it's looking like i'm going to be able to just reattach the bumper i have. it didn't get too beat up, the holes just tore and let it come half loose. put the replacement fender on last night. it needs to be fitted better, but it's on there and looks....ok... waiting on a cv axle for passenger side that should be in tuesday. it was trashed from before.

finally got the rex back together last night. have one z3 fender and one stock lol. will determine the fate of those fenders later. the bumper is now held on by 6 self tapping screws and the 4 screws on the fenders... new passenger side axle installed, and an inner fender. 90% of the noises that i attributed to road noise have vanished and a lot of the power that it had been lacking is back.
