Well I'd like some suggestions...advice...and how-to's.
As you can see from the pic, my bumper is cracked.
Don't plan on buying a new bumper to save money...also 'cause a new bumper with a fresh paint job on a 9year old car wouldn't look right.
Anyways plan is to fix it and some said JB Weld, other said a strong plastic epoxy.
Doing some research online, I thought that Duramix which was bought my 3M might do the job.
Any suggestions and tips would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I NOT an auto body person but know that these things get fixed! When the first plastic bumpers came out all I heard in no way.
Couple ideas for the right product. Go to a used car dealer and see what they use, you just know that they save money on their older used cars or a body shop and just ask - or find a body shop paint/supply store - they sell other tricky stuff too for fixing different things.
It WILL have to be the right product to take heat, cold, remain somewhat flexible, and PAINTABLE! I know it can be done unless it's really messed up, good luck,
