Front bumper repair
I'm trying to repair a TA front bumper I got from the junkyard. It's bowed inward where there is no honeycomb support behind the urethane. It's between the turn signal lenses and is where someone would push if they were pushing the car backward. On Irocs, there is an emblem there IIRC. Kinda hard to explain, but I don't have a digital cam. Its a pretty common problem, because I see a lot of bumpers on ebay that are bowed in the same way.
Has anyone repaired one of these before? I was thinking a heat gun would be my best shot. Any ideas/experience anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have no idea how to fix it, but I know exactly what you are talking about because mine does it too. I'm so sick of it, I'm thinking about buying a NEW one. If you do find a fix for it, let us know!
