Question for body shop gurus?

Does anyone know if a body shop could fix this? Or would it be cheaper to buy a new bumper? Would anyone want to sell me their OEM DG bumper for cheap?

i think you will need a new bumper cover since that tear is right at a structural seam. It could be fixed, but not without using something like an "L" bracket and rivets, which would show up front.

What the hell happened Ryan? Did it just tear, or did you hit something?

Because after ZDayz, I'm either going to put my car back to stock or get my Kuruma bumper fixed. The fitment under the headlights makes the bumper sag on the sides of the car and the paint is already spiderwebbing on the lip part. I'm just getting tired of spending so much money.

Front left tire went over a curb. The curb hit the black plastic piece under the bumper and ripped the actual bumper from the force of it.
