Crazing on front bumper

[Ken Green]

I've got an eight year old NSX in midnight purple. Three years ago the front bumper developed severe crazing/cracking. I had the bumper repaired but the problem has returned, with the paint peeling off as well. Has anybody experienced similar problems, and is there a cure (short of replacing).
If not, where can I get a replacement without paying the £1000 from my local dealer?

In my experience you cant repair cracks in plastic bumpers. Many people will disagree but sooner or later the crack will reapear no matter what state of the art technology you use. replace it dont try repair it.
