I hear ya. I was driving through construction the other day and the roads all cut up and I hear a bang and i was like s#!t. I look and sure enough, the front bumper is cracked...Damn Pennsylvania Department of Transportation...
lol...how many times have you cracked the vertex front bumper? Mine got really badly damaged once beacuse I dipped it into the ground and the other time a damn armadillo ran in front of my car out of nowhere. Those things have HARD SHELLS! Both other times it got cracked within 2 weeks after repair and paint. Hope the 3rd time is the charm and it will last me a few months lol.
Trust me, a fiberglass bumper is going to crack no matter what lol. You dip that bumper into the ground and it's game over. No strip of plastic is going to save your butt. I've learned it the hard way and have come to accept the truth lol.

Without it I had nasty scrapes in 2 weeks, with it no scraped up ground down bumper since 11/06 even though it is not a daily driver. Sure, it has it's limitations but it works for me.
I agree if you hit a dip,rock or parking block it will crack.

It's been cracked once. I was hoping to never crack it
but, it happened. lol
Looks good. I see you got the body molding which is a bit wider than the wheel well molding. the wheel well might help you get a little closer to the edge. this looks like it will do the trick.
Bumper looks clean no scrapes, sweet wheels
