Ouch, If you do end up using that bumper fix kit let us know how it comes out. I to have a similar crack, actually kinda worse.
Good luck!

ahh its only $50 which is why im considering it lol.
I already ordered the paint/bumper repair supplies for my other bumper and hopefully i can fix all the tabs . it doesn't have a crack like this one fortunately
only plus on this is that the tabs are intact.

Sure, there are plenty of products out there that can easily address the various plastics in bumpers. The decisions to repair depends on how much time and work you want to put into it.

I would make sure to sand and clean around the damaged area. Also make sure the break in plastic can be held together somehow before applying the adhesive. A heat gun will help in massaging.

They do sell a cheap kit on eBay specifically for melting your specific plastic material to mend the bumper together.
