Bending Nismo bumper back?

squid267 · 05-16-2016, 07:11 AM

I pulled too far into a parking spot and hit the curb. My front bumper is flared out a bit on the passenger side. Is this fixable? I'm going to bring it to a bodyshop as well but would like too see if there's any DIY solutions. Will update with pictures around lunch. Thanks

Sorry to read about your dilemma. I would attempt bending it back myself. If something doesn't work out, then I would go to a body shop. Check to see if you did not pop or break any of the plastic rivets/screws holding your bumper.
