NEED HELP (advice, opinions) 07 camry white bumper

[siphu522]

I rear-ended a truck today and damaged the front lip of my camry. the metal tow ball of the truck cut the lip of my car and scratched off a good amount of paint. Im wondering if i can get this repaired to look new or if i should buy a new bumper. and where can i go to find a reasonable priced bumper? i need to get this fixed asap and would appreciate any help i can get!

Have a ball.......

They are selling cheap because they are used and most probably have some damage. Also the Japan built cover is slightly different from the US built cover.

A new one:

+ shipping + $200-250 for flex paint/preparation (TSB PA001-07 dtd. 1/3/07) + labor for removal and reinstallation.

This is the 3rd or 4th bumper cover thread (what can I do?) in the last couple months.

DUDE....... I had the exact same problem about a year ago. I went to wall mart and bought some of the Toyota white color match paint and a little scratch remover. It took care of most of the problem, the main thing was that there was a circular dent in the car with another horizontal dent line right beneath but everything was white. The color match worked perfect and you couldn't see any of the black underneath.

I meant for it to be a temporary solution until I was able to find a new bumper. Unfortunately about 4 months ago, some chick wasn't paying attention at an intersection and almost tore my whole bumper off. Insurance paid for repairs which included a new bumper.
