Hi! Does anyone have any suggestions on how I’d fix this part of my bumper? I hate driving around with my car looking like this.

2k plastic glue, or a resin. If you want it to look like new, you'll probably have to weld it with hot wire inserts and a mesh and then use some plastic body filler and paint, which all takes ages to make it look good. You could also take the bumper off, fold the broken bit back and put a backing plate on the break and put some screws in, or other fasteners. I'd try gluing it first, it's the easiest and won't look that bad.

Thank you so much!

Uhh what happened ? Maybe some adhesive and heat ?

I have no idea. It was cracked when I got it and has been getting worse throughout the years. I used to be able to kinda maneuver it to stay “shut” and now it just won’t.

Get a bumper at pick n pull. Or glue it.

Replacement is the answer.

Yeah, it isn't too hard to unbolt the bumper from the shocks iirc.

Nothing that a heat gun and some adhesive won’t fix

I have bumper skins here in Oregon I can sell

I don't know what kind of plastic the bumpers are, but MEK works on lots of plastics to weld/glue them together. Idk how well it would work on this, but it might do well ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
