Andy, the Trueno front is unsalvageable, but you can get some good-looking add-ons for the standard Levin front . . . anyone know where?(Might ditch my current one)

just bog it or if ur fussy as suggested already fiberglass it up
bog doesnt hold big cracks verry well so it depends on the dammage

you cant use bog on fiberglass anyway! The fiberglass and the bog expand at different rates wen it a hot day and so the paint will crack..
