I got a serious problem

Here goes. My brother has a 2001 Mustang GT. He ussually parks in fornt of me in the drive way. Last night he decided to park in back of me. In the morning on the way to school i tried to back out and BANG!. MY trailer hitch went through his front bumper. The hole is about 3 inches by 4 inches. How much would you say a body shop would charge to fix this. I really hope it doesnt clear my bank account. PLease respond as fast as you can. I really need to know. Thanks.

Re: I got a serious problem

Two options either pay through the nose for a body shop to do it and also be without the car for the better part of a week, or if you or someone you know is good with fiberglass then take the bumper off, patch it up, sand and primer it then have it painted. Will be alot less costly doing it the second option just won't have that "dealer body shop" wallet screwing along with it.

I agree just glass it. Simple to do. Might cost you $50 plus paint.
