Self-repairing bodywork

Post by oldpro »

Monday while backing into a parking spot I hit the concrete base of a tall light pole. The corner of my bumper has a pushed-in spot about 10" in diameter and an inch or so deep.

Looking at what's required to get access behind the bumper, I decided to live with the shame, and not pursue a fix.

Friday morning I discovered that the pushed-in area had recovered and was back to the pre-accident shape! Scratches remain.

Either I have a special Baja, or the cycling between high desert cold and our dry heat did the trick.

I'm speechless.

Well at least you don't have to get the plunger out to pull it. Now just buff the scuff.
