No fix there other than duck tape. If you are getting another bumper cover, get a GT or a GT500 rear bumper cover in the event you go to dual exhausts.

I like that round one best for this application.

/is what it is, until you get it fixed, why not have fun with it? I totally would.

ok seriously, just remove the bumper cover
it would look so badass
You have an issue of it looking *way* worse than with the cover...

...but the problem is really that the license plate and lamp for it aren't mounted, and that's not legal. Neither is not having the reflectors and running lights on the sides. Most states anyway... Can't say about Canada, but I'm sure it's similar... In any event, I don't think it advisable...

Of course, if one were to fashion a rig to fix those problems, sure, run it nekkid.

My bumper was damaged and the paint also. So i took off the bumper, sanded it down and repainted it myself. Looks tons better. You can do that if you want. Or just use some plasti dip for th3 time being and repaint the whole thing while you wait for the new one.
