Bending Urethane Bumper Back

[savegoodautonfg]

I have a new front bumper and it cost me around $400 painted so i dont wanna just go get another one.

I hit a small snow bank when pulling into a parking spot and the bottom of my bumper like got bent up. how can i flex it to bend it back?

Thanks in advance,

Nick

If your going to use a heat gun i would apply the heat to the backside of the bumper cover just in case the paint bubbles.Better safe than sorry...ya know.

Urethane definitely has a memory, but that may be just a little too much.
No doubt you can to heat it up enough to get it to go back into p[lace , but I wouldn’t bet that it would stay in place.

My friend had the rear corner pushed right in way worse than that and he used a blow torch on the back side and pushed it out....I would use a heat gun. I will bet it will come out with a little heat and a massage
