A large section under the grille opening of this Dodge Challenger front bumper cover was broken in a collision. Notice that the bumper is bright yellow; an exceptionally difficult color to match. If we replace this bumper, it is likely that the paint we mix wouldn’t match.
If we repair this bumper, we can blend the color in the panel to avoid having to do so on the fenders and hood. Fortunately, damage such as this provides an easy repair opportunity using tools and supplies from Polyvance.
