How repairable are the plastic bumpers on late model cars? Wife got crashed again in the 93 Taurus. The slide bracket on the bumper that holds the side of the bumper to the body broke some spot welds. The bracket came off all together on the other side. And there is one small pushed in area.
So, do body shops regularly repair plastic bumpers? can they spot weld brackets plastic to plastic? What about small holes? The insurance companies preferred repair shop want to fix it. Other shops want to replace it.
Also, how hard are they to paint? What about repainting a used bumper that's a different color?
