Damn dude. Sucks to hear that. I'd just try contacting Ed to see if he has one, more than likely he does.

Bondo isn't going to work. I 'might' stick and cover it up but the bumper moves, and it'll crack the bondo right back off.

I bet your bumper support and foam under it is destroyed too. You need to check that out before buying stuff. Hopefully your unibody got no damage. I'll bet you'll need a bumper support though, definatly the foam and cover too.
Whatever you do, fix it right at least. Don't half ass it for mod money, theres no point...

Damn man, sorry to hear about your GP. Hope the repairs come quick!

dude a bumper from mpc cost likes 50-75 bucks, if that. now i guess you would have to pay shipping too, but basically if you want oem parts, there no better way to go than morad parts company.

They make plastic bondo, allows for flex so it doesnt crack.

The bumper isn't plastic. Paint will even crack and break off if you don't use the right stuff on it.

Ok, then..They also make bondo with fiberglass hairs in it. Ive used it, it works well. If you know how to use it, it will work. Im 99% sure that it will work on the bumper of his car. There is also paint that has a chemical in it that allows it to flex, its the paint that is on our bumpers of our cars. Done right, his bumper will look as if it was never hit, but if you dont know how to use the bondo, it will have waves and possibly not look good.
This is the bondo he needs to do it himself-
