Sorry, non-motorcycle related, need car help!

I'm looking at a 2005 ford mustang GT with 25,000 miles, V8 and all the goodies, but it needs a new rear clip, i'm figuring that'll be a spendy job, probably one of those $1000-$1500 jobs, but i'm not sure. What does it mean when your car needs a new rear-clip?

 

Are you talking about the rear bumper or the whole back half of the car? I,m a collision repair tech for a living, usually when we talk about a "clip" that means replacing either the whole front or rear section af a car with a section fron another car. A repair like that is not cheap and has to be done by someone who knows what they are doing. A bumper cover replacement is more like a $600 $1200 job depending on the price of the cover. Do you have any pictures of the damage, that would help. I just don't want to see you get burned on something that needs more work or money put into it than it's worth.

 

yeah sounds like something i'll stay away from, thanx

 

Hole back clip (uuug) Save your money.
