Polyvance video showing how to repair bumper support brackets

Some popular vehicle models, such as the Mazda Miata, have bumpers with plastic support brackets. These brackets can be nifty for a great many reasons. They provide great reinforcement, substantially minimizing the bumper's liklihood to dent. However, they have been known to break off, taking the tab-- which holds the reinforcement in place-- with them. This creates the need for a repair that would be virtually impossible without a nitrogen plastic welder.

In our most recent instructional video, we walk through the step-by-step process of recreating tabs for bumper support brackets using one of our nitrogen plastic welders.
