any way to put plastic back together?

i'm thinking about putting the bottom of my front bumper back together.

too much not-so-good approach angles crunched it up a bit.

i'd really like to get my car back to it's beautiful form this summer, so you're all going to see a lot of these "how to i do so-and-so" threads

Plastic welding is about the only way, unless it's a scratch in which case you can fill and paint it.

Plastic weld then.

Or just buy a junkyard bumper and wear that while you experiment with your existing one.

i was actually thinking about cutting that peice off completly, but it covers the lwoer rad support.

Just go for the allied armament front bumper, no more approach angle worries.
