Today I attempt to fix the front Bumper on my Nismo 370Z! A few months ago I scraped a brick wall and put a big gash in the corner of the front bumper. A professional repair will cost around $300 and nearly the entire bumper will get painted. After crashing my Nissan 370Z Nismo into a brick wall at well over a half of a mile an hour, I re-paint part of the front bumper to seamlessly fix the damage!
I spent about $60 on paint, airbrush and materials and spent 1 entire day working on it myself!
Overall it came out really good. There is a small shadow of the new paint you can see above where the actual damage was. So I will end up taping off the front of the lip to cover where the damage was, and sand down that discoloration and re clear it.
It's about 80% perfect looking and normal lookers probably won't notice anything. But I'll be able to touch up the discoloration because that is new paint on top of undamaged paint. I just didn't sand it enough.
But it definitely looks great, the bumper has the same contour, pearl effect, and looks very good!
At this point I would have what looks like a small shadow on the corner then run the risk of seeing the entire bumper a hint more Yellow, Blue or White than the hood and fender.
Time to mod the car!!
