Only 1 week with G and CRACK =[

Why is the aero bumper so low? like 1 week after i got my coupe, i got too close to some concrete [censored] and CRACK!! i got out to reveal the right side of my bumper STICKING OUT! the holes where the screws go are torn. I can push it back into place, but there is a small gap in that spot which kills me every minute of every day. So my question, is there any way of repair as i went to a body shop and they wanted to charge me 1000 for the repair. I was thinking maybe bond it together with the material shops use to bond aeros to cars?

If not, does anyone know where i can get ahold of a replica NISMO front bumper? thanks alot guys.

A similar thing happened to me with my G after a short time of owning it. I hit one of those concrete bumpers and when I backed up I really heard it scrapping. Thank God it was the bottom and not noticeable. Since then, I have repainted my front bumper (after 3 months of ownership) because of a few nasty paint chips and the car looks like new. One thing if for sure. I have always remembered to stay clear of those cement bumpers. I'm sure you will too!
