My wife, ironically to use a wide parking space to avoid door dings, backed our Aero into a concrete light post foundation. This misfortune cracked the cover at the top; total length of the crack was about 10". A local body shop wanted something like $800 just for a replacement cover, plus hundreds more to paint it. Thus motivated, I bought some special 2-part epoxy-like bumper adhesive at a bodyshop supply store; it cost under $30 a few years ago, as I recall. I removed the cover and repaired the crack, backing it up with some sheet ABS. It was a clean crack, fortunately, and the repair is visible as a fine white line in the Eucalyptus green.
