Answer In most hardware stores you can find what's called a Heat Gun. Hold the heat gun about 6inches away from the acrylic you intend on bending say the bumper on a car. They are all plastic these days but will melt when you apply heat to them. Using a cold scraper you can usually mold two pieces back together using the heat gun.

The molecules in the acrylic become hot, therefore they expand and the acrylic bends.

Hope this helps :)
