Does anyone know why I would get a stress crack in my bumper in the corner of the passenger headlight on my 2014 Maxima? I took it to the body shop and they told me it appears to be a stress crack since there was no visible evidence of any impact. The replacement bumper is only around $350, but it's 6 hours of labor to replace it. So around $1,100 to repair.

 

how bad is the crack?

they can't fiberglass it and repaint it?

 

No. The body shop tells me the only way to fix it is to replace the bumper.
