[QUOTE="Vincent Hor, post: 91056, member: 1221"] No point doing this kind of repairs. In the end you will end up spending more money. After so many years the BMW plastics are all harden already. Just one knock will shatter the plastic bumper like breaking biscuits. Applying fibreglass over the plastic won't help very much. As OS rightly said, after a while it will start cracking up or the repaired area will show up quite clearly. It will be ugly, when that happens. Did it occur to you as to why the second hand bumpers are so expensive for E34? That's because everyone is experiencing this problem and the supply is just not enough. Better not be "penny wise pound foolish" [/QUOTE]
