#87467, "Bumper question(s)..." Jul-23-05 06:05 PM by ExcessTalonESi
Hi guys,
It's been a while since I've visited this site. I would like it known that I've been searching for a couple hours and all I find are bumper inserts and not the actual bumpers themselves. Anyway, my girlfriend has a '98 Talon ESi, automatic. Today she ripped her front bumper on the bottom toward to passenger side. I was curious if anyone out there has some experience with repairing a bumper and what it may cost. Or, would it be cheaper to buy a new bumper? I don't want a bodykit, so please don't suggest that. I've seen a couple bumpers for the 95-96 Eclipse on Ebay, will a 95-96 Eclipse or Talon front bumper fit on a 98 or will there be fitment issues (I know there was some cosmetic changes from the 97 and on DSMs)? She plans on selling the car in the near future, but we don't want to spend too much trying to fix this bumper issue. So please, if you could offer any assitance as to what you think should be done. Thank you in advance.
