My ST's rear bumper has a crack on it again! in the corner top.

Since I have had the car that bumper seems jinxed!!!

Only just fitted new rear bumper on it aswell

 

sorry, put it here in pics as I have got a pic but wont load up for some reason.

 

I would have thought it was either damaged but couldn't be seen and the plastic freezing has exacerbated it, or it's been hit whilst it was frozen and therefore brittle ?

 

yer more logical that some ones tapped into it and pissed off enit

just thought as those mondeo ST bumpers are the crapest bumpers on a car I have ever seen!

 

mondeos are famous for chocolate bumper though aren't they?
if it was a brand spanking perfect new freshly painted bumper someone has whacked it
however if it had previous minor damage or a repair then yes this cold could contribute to making it worse or exposing a previous repair

 

chocolate?

 

Melt / not strong

I bet someone has clumped it in snow, or slid and pissed off !

 

They are very brittle, I had the last one repaired twice as I caught it on the kerb whilst driving away forgetting how low it is on the arse end.

Then only had this one fitted inearly Augast so this is in need of repair now.

One thing I suppose is the fixings on the rear quater are still in once pice as thats what usualy breaks off first.

Fuckin bumper!!! lol

 

One of those mate....bit of a pain in the arse though !

 

yeah as in as if they are made of chocolate, about half the mondeos I've ever seen for sale have had w@nked bumpers

 

Could you not just take it back to where you had it painted and see what they say.They might repair it for free.

 

Na, was me mate Kev who fitted and painted it. I have text him about quote to fix crack just waiting on him to get back to me.

Wont be till new year now though and with the amount of total and utter idiots on the road in Birmingham I'll be lucky if some one don't smash into it before then lol

 

i havnt cracked mine and ive dragged the thing down kerbs lol

the only damage it has done is cracked the laquer but no damage to bumper

my front bumper got ripped off its mounrs when i hit a rabbit in the lanes lol, again just cracked laquer but no cracks

where is yours cracking

 

right below the lights bud on the corner where it changes shape slightly

I'll try and get a new pic of it to load tomorrow

 

just took a look on mine and nothing there

someone must of hit you to crack the bumper

 

where the snow is on the back bumper is where it is cracked

I think it maybe lowered also as seems lower than other ST200's I have seen, but had it over 3 years now and not modded it at all.

 

definitly lowered

 

Ya think?
