Okay, i finally found a bumper cover for my 91 bird, which may seem like an easy thing to do, but those two years are a b*tch to find. anyways, i found one for a good price, but both tabs on the upper corners are ripped where it attaches to the fender. One guy said they could be glued, another said no. I am just looking for an opinion. If you dont see the pictures on my site yet, they will be there in a few minutes, i need to make a decision really soon, so some fast help would be appreciatted.

For the most part I have had great luck bonding tears back together, just take a piece of Urithane from another bumper to reinforce the back of it where the crack/tear is.

There is a special rubber/Urithane glue for doing just that. Most good automotive stores that supply paint should be able to get what you need. (ask around to some bump shops too.)

I would agree they are a bi**h to find the one I have also had one corner tab tore I put it on anyways.. not such a hot idea I bearly got tapped from a truck while the car was parked and it seems to have tore more I have almost an inch gap now between my drivers light and the bumper. had I known about the glue stuff I would have use it then, now I have to remove the bumper and reinforce the tear. I was thinking about using some fiber glass as well to help with the reinforcement.
did you get yours fixed and if so how much of a pain was it? thanks
