Broken rear bumper - creative tips to cover it

Asked by Phaneendra Apr 22, 2019 at 10:59 AM about the 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I hope you have a great day and thank you for vising my post.

I recently hit pole while backing my car and this has caused a damage to
rear bumper cover with broken at corner. I attached images for reference. I
don't want to go with insurance company as it impacts my premium and
already paying much. hence, i decided not to invest money for replacement
with new bumper. Please give me any thoughts that i can creatively use
tricks to cover the ugly broken space at my rear bumper. I really don't bother
about color but it should looks fine.Highly appreciated
for any response..

Those covers are flexible and now that it is broken like that, the structural integrity is lost. You could use some popsicle sticks and duct tape but it look terrible. With a hole that large, you really need a new bumper cover.
