not sure what section this should go in so i will plop it here lol

i have a corsa gsi bumper for my mates car, the top right grill surround/pokey up bit, has snapped off, must of been crushed or something when being moved anyway i got it yesterday removed all the crapply fixed lumps of filler and fiberglass. it was semi smoothed but i thought **** it, start over.
would fibre glass be good enough glue? i have plastic welded some cracks up well. unsure on how to put the piece back on?:confused::confused:

I'd plastic weld the bit back on. Then glue/fiber glass some metal on the back for support.
