It is necessary to report to insurance if the front bumper is cracked. More information about bumpers is as follows: 1. Introduction: The front and rear ends of a car are equipped with bumpers, which not only have decorative functions but also serve as safety devices that absorb and mitigate external impacts, protecting the car body and the safety of passengers. 2. Structural composition: The outer panel and cushioning material are made of plastic, while the crossbeam is formed by stamping cold-rolled thin plates with a thickness of about 1.5 mm into a U-shaped groove. The outer panel and cushioning material are attached to the crossbeam, and the crossbeam is connected to the longitudinal beams of the car frame with screws, allowing it to be disassembled at any time. The plastic used for these bumpers is mainly polyester-based and polypropylene-based materials, manufactured using injection molding methods.
