Well... From looking at it, when I've looked at how the bumper is attached, it isn't all that hard to take off. I would start by getting the service manual from here on the site (I'm pretty sure there is one for the nubria). As for the wires being cut, couldn't you just match them up and repair those?

I know you would do well to have metric sockets or wrenches if you're going to do the job yourself.

Of course there is also the bumper itself. Are you going to order a new OEM bumper, aftermarket bumper? Are you going to have to paint it yourself or are you going to have a shop paint it? Lots of questions, I know... but it'll make giving a more precise advice possible.

Thanks for reply. I just replaced the front bumper cover my self. It was a snap. I will have to paint it soon though since it was aftermarket replacement in black.
all now left now are some electrical issues regarding my right turn signal wires and bulb. Will post some pics and tell yall any issues i had later. Thanks great forum for daewoo's.
