Restorations for Modern Vehicles
Fibreglass is a common material in today’s vehicles, especially in bumpers, side skirts, spoilers and aftermarket body kits. While it’s flexible and impact-resistant, it can still crack, split or delaminate over time or under stress.
Fibreglass repairs require more than filler and paint—they involve surface preparation, structural reinforcement and precise reshaping to restore the original form.
The repair process often includes sanding back the area, layering fibreglass matting and resin, curing the material, then sanding, sealing and priming the surface. For deeper cracks or missing sections, custom reshaping may be required before the final paint finish. The goal is not only to restore appearance, but also to ensure long-term durability and flexibility, so the part performs as it should under everyday conditions.
A professional fibreglass repair saves money compared to part replacement, and when done right, the repaired area is virtually undetectable. It’s a smart option for anyone looking to protect their investment, whether it’s for cosmetic improvement or road safety.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can fibreglass car parts be repaired or do they need replacing?
Most fibreglass car parts, such as bumpers or body kits, can be repaired rather than replaced, depending on the severity and location of the damage. Cracks, splits and holes can typically be reinforced and reshaped using fibreglass matting and resin. However, if a part is shattered into many pieces or the damage affects mounting points, replacement may be more practical. An inspection will determine whether the structure can be safely and cost-effectively rebuilt.
How long do fibreglass repairs take to complete?
The duration of a fibreglass repair depends on the size and complexity of the damage. Small repairs can often be completed in a day or two, while larger or more involved jobs may take several days due to drying, curing and sanding stages. If the part also requires colour-matching and painting, allow extra time for surface preparation and finishing. A professional repairer will provide a realistic time estimate once they’ve assessed the damage.
Is fibreglass as strong after it’s been repaired?
Yes, when repaired correctly, fibreglass can be just as strong—or in some cases stronger—than the original section. Proper layering, resin application and curing are critical to restoring its integrity. Repairs should be sanded and sealed to ensure long-term performance and prevent moisture or stress cracking. It’s important to work with a technician familiar with automotive fibreglass to avoid brittle or poorly bonded repairs that could fail under pressure.
