there's a hole on my front bumper.....

aznrr · 04-04-2009, 02:09 PM

i got off school yestoday and on my way home. a random rock hit my front bumper . and it broke through my bumper. so now there's a hole on my front bumper. i went to a local body shop, they said my whole front bumper needs to be replace. my concer is should i just get a oem bmw front or go for a aftermarket one. and if so, any suggestions ? what brand ? any pitures? thank you

the whole can also be filled for much less $ if it is not too huge. sure someone did not back into you? random rock making hole sounds strange.

I've had the same thing happen on my isf. punched a hole right through the bumper. Had it repaired and cant even tell now.
