Aftermarket Bumper cover / Air Dam

If the Capris were built like the Mustangs (and I think they were), anything from '83-'86 should fit with no problem, and earlier maybe with some modifications.

You might be able to work something with fiberglass putty, but it wouldn't be nearly as flexible as the original material.

Yes there is.. see your local body shop supply. Like bondo but flex. Using alum flashing as backer it works very well.

Sorry I don't have first hand expierience repairing a bumper cover but a little searching has brought up a couple ways to repair the bumper cover.

I think your cover is polyurethane here's a couple repair techniques:

Another thing you may consider. Most body shops can either repair the bumper cover save $$$ by doing the R&I yourself. Then they can paint it to match your car. If you don't think you want to spend the money on a body shop, get ahold of your local chroming shop. Most of them do bumper repairs and many these days repair the urethane bumper covers as well.
