    I hit a coyote and cracked my front bumper. Thought this might be a possibility. Any thoughts?

    Unless you have lots of experience you can destroy a lot of stuff with a plastic welder. I had a high end one years back and you need the exact type of rod, the right technique and a little bit of luck. I don’t suggest anyone try unless you can practice practice practice on hidden or scrap parts first. Even then you may destroy your stuff.
