Im looking for just the black bumper part, as mine is scratched and ruins the look of the car.

Where is a cheap place to get a new/decent looking one.

Have you tried rubbing it down and spraying with plastic primer then top coat Rkive?

No, cos the scratches are actually quite deep, n it would take ages to sand it down n prob wouldnt look right after.

Prefer to just get the bumper cos they cant be that expensive.

Cheers for the idea anyway mate.
