New Front Bumper Look

Mr. 5 · 10-16-2010, 03:59 PM

Since my accident, I've been wondering what it would look like if I taped the front to hide the big crack. I'm waiting for my hood to arrive before I take it to the body shop so I'm going to be driving around in the mean time.

What do you guys think? Better or Worse?

Worse. Get a big vinyl bandaid sticker.

Looks better taped up.

I've never seen a bmw with a mustache! =D in all seriousness, tape looks better until the replacement comes in.

I went on the freeway and the duct tape is coming off lol.
I think the bumper is flexing so much in the wind.

I like the tape, myself. It's only temporary, so why not make the best of a bad situation?

If you trim the edges of the tape to taper it, it might look pretty cool, as if you deliberately created a new design, like the folks who vinyl their roofs. LOL!!!
