    We are going to need more info, where is the crack? Is it plastic or metal? A picture perhaps.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    size of a baseball? sounds like your going to need someone good with plastic welding, prob better to find one in same colour at a wreckers.

    I agree with the second hand bumper idea. I don't think trying to repair a hole that size will look any good unless it is done by an expert and that will probably cost as much as a second hand bumper.

    Supercheap has some plastic epoxy used for repairing plastic tanks, maybe you could try some of that. It's hard to say without seeing the damage.
