Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I ahve a small repairr I need to make on my rear bumper, 99 996 cab, it had a small hole in it when I purchased. To repair the hole with filler I need to know what the bumper is made of. It seems to be some type of plastic or semi flexible material. If some one knows please respond. Thanks in advance

POST 2Original post

The OEM bumper is made of polyurethane. It is very hard to patch/repair. Good luck, .: programmatore :.

POST 3Original post

You need to find a shop in your area that has a lot of experience with this material. It's not rocket science, and it can be fixed. Just find the right shop - ask some Porsche Club guys and some Porsche dealers for referrals, then go see the shop owner and watch their work.

POST 4Original post

Most common repair material is Kent or 3M plastic repair / flexable repair material. 2 part material like flexable epoxy. There are always different manufactures coming out with new products but the major brands are usually better. The body shop you have make the repair should have been working with this for the last 20 or 30 years. Nothing special. Its all about the same as any automotive plastic body parts. Just body work.

POST 5Original post

When I had my 993 rear-ended the plastic bumper needed to be heated up to be repaired. Apparently they take the bumper off, apply the same material and heat it into place. I was undetectable after they did it, but I think it required some sort of special equipment.

POST 6Original post

there is a plastic welding process for big splits and piece togather jobs. if you have a deformity that needs to be straightened, they can heat and bend back into shape. but a little hole is filled with filler material.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
