I have a somewhat older car that's front bumper fell off. Someone was turning a corner while I was parked and knocked it off. There is no damage to the bumper or paint, it just needs to be put back on. I was wondering if that is something I can do or do I need to go to a shop to do that. What would the costs be in either case. Thanks for the advice! Peace.

So is your "somewhat older" car a 1930s bently or a 1990s honda?
Have you ever worked on a car before? Do you even own a set of tools?
Is anything bent or broken on the bumber?
We can't help you if you don't help us.

More than likely no matter what year it is, if it got "knocked off" then the brackets or mounts are broken or damaged.

Actualy TSC many Japanese and European cars use clips that will pop off rather than break. In some cases you can just clip the bumper back on again.

Yes, but the clips usually break when removed, expecially on "older" cars.
