Advice request:
2005 Jeep Liberty ... clipped something on the front right. Barely got into the bumper bar; mostly ripped across the top of it, ultimately ripping away part of the apron from its spot welds. This area will be all hidden once reassembled & the only alignment point is the front fender mounting bolt. Vehicle will be used as a "TOAD" (behind a motorhome).
Options I see:
1) Cut out the damage & section-in replacement panels
2) Bang the metal back close & weld the spots back
Opinions?
Ripped Apron off spots, Bang 'n Weld or Cut 'n Replace?

A skilled panel beater could repair all that. A not so skilled person would replace.
Either way, should be fixed since they are important impact absorption areas. Chris
