Default Question about Polyurethane Front bumper

Well like the title has I have a question about polyurethane really. I have the Aerosync N-Style Polyurethane Front bumper, and unfortuantly, yesterday my car lost complete control during a corner. The combination of sand, rocks, bumps and really bad stock tires, my car ran into the curb after a 360. At the moment it seems to be only the front bumper that was damaged.

The question that I have is that the front bumper hit the alluminum bar behind it and cracked alittle. I was wondering if this was fixable, or not. And if it is, would it be worth it to fix, or to just buy a new front bumper.

Thanks

It can't be fixed. Buy a new one. I've had mine replaced twice already. The body shops have always told be it would cost just as much to repair it as it would to replace it, and this was for a non-cracked bumper.
