Greetings,
I've just reversed into something that made a small crack in my rear bumper, about half an inch long and maybe quarter inch wide. I don't know what these bumpers are made of nowadays, but I'm guessing some sort of fibreglass or similar by the looks of it: it's as if the shiny top layer has come off, revealing a woven fibre underneath, if that makes any sense.
Any thoughts on what I should do to get it sorted, and how much the various options would cost approximately? I have a feeling if I take it to MB they'll probably want to sell me a whole new bumper...
The car's a two-year-old E-class estate, in case that makes any difference, in 'Obsidian black' paintwork.
Happy to post a picture if it would help.
