Hi,
I recently was in a car accident that damaged my rear bumper and passenger side rear light. The accident occured at a relatively low velocity and there was no damage elsewhere. I am hoping to repair it myself but I don't have much experience fixing cars. My question for you is this:
1. Do you think that someone with limited experience working on cars and not a lot of tools possibly do this?
2. I've looked at several sites with used parts. Do I just need a "A High Quality, Direct Fit OE Replacement For Bumper Cover Dark Gray" or will I need other parts as well.
Thank you,
chris

Hi there,

if you have limited experience and are un sure of the tooling needed, I would get a panel shop to replace this for you, if you get a new bumper it may require painting as well and as they are fixed with metal & plastic fasteners, you wont know what is required until it is removed.
