what to do with Del Sol body?
alright, so i gotta get my del sol repainted at some point. and in each corner of my bumpers there are stress cracks right were they would bolt into the fender next to the wheel weld (see below).....so i'm torn between a body kit or trying to get used bumpers from another place. A body kit would be nice, but i hate ones that look like a giant snowplow. anyone else have any good ideas, or know anything that would repair the cracks and last a long while.

You can find used bumpers pretty cheap. I actually have on that was on my 93 sol. Look in the marketplace or ebay if you are not interested in mine. Oh and keep it oem bc you will regret buying a kit later on.

no body kit please. Dont ruin a car and give hondas a bad rep, as if they didnt have one already. Fix what needs to be done but keep it stock. All a del sol needs is to be lowered and some nice wheels.

If you're looking for something that will LAST, I'd stay away from a body kit. Although they may look nice (to you, at least) they are generally made of cheap materials that WILL crack over time. They usually have fitment issues as well.
I'd go to http://www.partstrain.com or http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com and get the OEM parts you need quite cheap on those 2 sites and you'll be happy for quite some time, and look very nice in the meantime.
Good luck!

they do make strong 2 part glues but those areas you circled are not going to be easy to fix or would probly just brake again
just save time and get new oem bumpers (or afterarket replacements)
