Grinder blade may break and cause fatal damage to people standing near. if it struck between that bumper. Using a grinder for Grinding or cutting a plastic or carbon fiber material the friction will melt the material and tries to grab the grinder blade as a result the blade will split in parts and cause fatal injury.

it's so rare to see things get repaired these days. Well done!

Because it's usually more cost effective to replace the part. This was mostly done for fun or insurance job

This is one of the best fixing a cracked bumper videos I have seen, thank you.

You had me at the car stitches, LOL. I wasn't sure what the turnout would be like, but wow that's an amazing transformation! Awesome job.

at the end I thought thats not the same bumper till you showed underneath. you did a fantastic job 😀

Love your videos guys... You've taught me a bunch of skills and helped me out on three separate jobs I've done on my car already... Thank you. Keep up the good work👍

Love watching a pro do their thing. Great video for the lay person. Extremely thorough and detailed instructions as well as tips and tricks that will certainly give me the confidence to tackle my second bumper repair. The first one was before KZread and turned out being a mess and a complete failure. Not to mention that I bought so much more of everything than I needed. I ultimately just took a hacksaw to the damn thing so that it wasn’t dragging on the road and called it a day. Thank you for taking the time to share this!

Wow, just wow. I am thoroughly impressed with the final result. I was a little skeptical when you just started drilling holes in the bumper and applying the epoxy, but after seeing the final result, I am convinced. I have almost everything that you used in the video so I can start to do this myself.

VERY helpful, thank you!

That is some incredible craftsmanship. I didn't know bumper repairs could look that good. Most body shops I know would tell you to scrap the bumper if it had that big a hole in it but you guys did an amazing job

Man, you did such a great job. Doesn't even look like the same bumper.

You just saved me about $1000 fixing my bumper. Thanks a million!

you guys are not auto repair guys but craftsmen. I can't get over how good the finished result is!

You need to use the type of mesh tape with adhesive on one side to enable it to stick to the surface so that it doesn't move all around as the epoxy is being applied. Optimally you can use fiberglass cloth. Otherwise you can use spray glue on the tape. Then you can apply the epoxy with a stiff, disposable brush instead of a stick to work it into the contours. You also must mix the Bondo/hardener with wiping strokes and not by whipping or stirring because that introduces air bubbles into the Bondo mix. But overall an excellent job.

I like what you guys did with the bumper....and is very educational. Thank you.

When I saw you putting on a zip tie I was like "Shit that's what I do!" Only difference is that I use fiberglass mesh and fiberglass epoxy. Excellent job guys.

Excellent video! If something like this happens to my car I will watch this video again and follow your steps exactly. It's good to be able to fix things like this yourself...even if you can do some PDR as well with cheap tools you can buy from Ebay. Now I am going to subscribe to your channel because you explain things very well.. Oh...one question. What about if you have the ultra sonic sensors in the bumper?

this was too great man....for first time see your video I just thought it was some bluff for repairing it...but until the end you make it just like the original one...:D

If you lean on it or bump it you'll have to do it again within a year,,,,

Good job. I see 2 areas that would make it much easier. Sand the bumper before you do the zip tie stick and imbed the reinforcement into the wet epoxy.

Accent is strong but the fluency is flawless. Good work guys.
