Question
My 2007 Tiburon now has a scratch about 18 inches long on the front right bumper, I think it is cracked too. Can I fix that area or do I have to replace the entire bumper??
Hello Stephanie! Ooooh, it sounds fatal. You really need to visit a body shop, and see if it's indeed cracked the full 18 inches. If it's just a scratch, it can totally be fixed- if it's an 18 inch long crack- well, crack kills, they say! (sorry about the crappy pun- I couldn't help myself) Have a great evening. Bill
