^ Hi `Ember,
Will your friend help you with the cost ?
If, not please don't let her drive again or attempt to park
I suggest going to a local auto shop to get their advice & an estimate on a repair. I'm sure with your background & college major that you could tell if they are being truthful.
I'm sure that with your blessed beauty that you could make some legal $'s working @ a local car show posing with the owners to highlight their vehicle (just a suggestion).
Wish you good luck on getting it fixed, but I'm sure that you will find a way...4-Sure
Good luck @ college & in life...Peace/Out from `Space
Yes, I love her to death, she is my best friend, but never again! You mean being a car show model? I never knew that existed, and I like the sound of it. I need a second job and nobody is hiring. Got any more info on that?
I would love to do that!Thank you! Yes, I will find SOME way. I always do haha God will fix everything for me. Thank you! I love this forum and the people here. So glad I joined it.

If you know someone that paints, you could probably get it painted and all with cost of paint for $150 - 200.
My mom backed into my girlfriends car and we got the whole front bumper replaced and painted by a friend for $300 total.
If you can find a bumper at a yard for like $70-100 you could save some money there
Just keep in mind that a bumper online won't match the factory paint as well as it would if someone local took the car and matched it. Although it should look pretty good still

Easy fix on that, if your confident enough to sand & apply filler than u can easily fix it, can u post a pic of the crack in the bumper?

Okay, I will hunt around then for a new one. Too much work and money to sandpaper and fill? I know it looks super bad in the picture, but I hardly notice the crack.
