Front End Damage: Fix or Replace? I have some damage to my 2010 Camaro 2SS/RS bumper cover and passenger fender. I'm taking it to a few shops next week, but also wanted to get some opinions on here as well.
Am I better off replacing the front bumper cover and fender, or attempting to have these ones fixed? It seems the cost of a used bumper cover and fender would run me about $700 (+ paint).

I'd fix the cover, get a new/used GM fender, paint the fender off the car and blend into the door. Otherwise you may have a color difference on the driver's side and hood. Insurance won't pay to blend into the driver's fender or hood, and color match of covers is not guaranteed.
