    as the man said . If it's just a crack , you can either fibreglass it , or get it Plastic welded by a panel beater.

    The rear bumper looks like it is made from fiber glass, so you cannot
    plastic weld it ,if you can strip of the damaged parts you will be able
    to repair it with a fiber glass kit ,you will also need to get the colours
    matched ,if you pop along to Vinny byrnes in ballyfermot you will get
    everything you need.
    PS
    you tube have loads of videos on repairing this type of damage.

    Looks to me like its a plastic moulded bumper.

    Six of one, half a dozen of the other I guess.

    Hi I had a look at a camper the other day and noticed two windows had these yellow patches.

    The camper smelt good and there was no evidence of water damage or leaking?

    Is this an old repair job?
