Cheap fix for old bumpers
My better half was tapped on the rear bumper by a toyota 4x4, the bumper was dented in and looked like it needed replacing.Insurance paid 200 more than I bought it for 2 years previous and we bought the car back for 600 bucks as SALVAGE.It still drives perfect and my bodyman just used a heat gun to return the bumper to its former self(memory plastic).Try this on thoses dented bumpers,don't burn the plastic bumper heat it slowly.Now the rear fenders,thats another story!

I think he means the rear quarter panels are another story when it comes to fixing them as opposed to the ease of fixing the rear bumper with a little heat? Must have had some quarter panel damage along with the bumper.
