Bonding Wings West lip to bumper cover?
Bonding Wings West lip to bumper cover? What should be used to bond and eliminate the seam between the front Wings West lip and the factory bumper cover? I do lots of fiberglass work but I'm not sure it will bond 100% to the different plastics with out applying some type of epoxy first. Any help or info would be great!

isnt wings west called "fiber flex" or some type of material, iam not to sure what it is made of but i know plastic repair and panle bond sticks to it
fiberglass bondo those produtcs do not bond nothing on plastic, so lets not try that route, i would do a plastic repair material like fusors extreme material, that is some good stuff, but you need to find out what type of plastic your bumper is, inside you will see this TPO/TPE.TEO, PP, or if its yellow then its polyurathene
polyurathene does not need a adheshion promoter for repair material to stick, the other plastics do, lightly grind the bumper and the kit, apply the adheshion promoter it dries in 15 mins, apply repair material to both bumper and kit, tape it on clamp it on let it dry for 24 hours, full cure time
thats the way i do them, and it works
