Another question related to my 91. The interior is pristine, most of the car has decent paint. I have another thread on a couple surface rust spots.
But the car must have gotten bumped the right way to just crack some of the plastic.
The bumper is original, doesn’t look to be repainted, has an OE Daimler VIN sticker attached underneath, etc. I’d like to keep the original bumper because of this.
The issue is this small hole. I guess it got hit just right to crack it.
Obviously it doesn’t look great, but I’m hoping maybe some kind of fill may hide it well enough.
Not sure if some sort of filler that can be open to the air on the backside could be used. I’m not opposed to removing the bumper and building it up slowly, then sanding the outside smooth, then painting when the time comes… or something like that.
But looking for recommendations on what might work to have a decent job. A 5-foot repair. Not a concours repair or a like new repair necessarily, as I intend to keep the bumper covers and chrome with their patina.
So… recommendations?
Thanks!
