Default fixing a bumper

Well this morning i was involved in like a 4 car accident...i rear ended the guy in front of me ( i was the lsat in the chain).

theres no damage to my bumper except its kind of hanging off. I opened the hood and i can see that the bumper is attached with a bolt a huge piece of plastic to my bumper:

o---------|bumper what happened is it snapped in the middle (left and right bolts, both sides of my grill: o---/-----| So its kind of hanging off...anyone know how much somethin like this would cost to fix? Does anything need to get replaced or can they kind of jury rig a bolt?

I drive a 99 mustang

Thanks for any help

You mean the bumper cover is hanging off by where the grill is right

yeah sorry:



Those two arms at the top broke. My friend is telling me no body shop will do anything other than replace the whole cover. I know someone that owns one, do you think they could just jury rig it with another piece of plastic and a bolt so i dont have to replace the whole thing?

You are going to have the replace the whole bumper cover without it looking terrible.
