Think these things are always difficult to keep nice as it'll most likely crack after a while.. no matter how much time you spend on blending it in

you could get lucky with a very good plastic welder, but there will always be the risk of cracking as the join line is so long and the torsion proerties of the bumper and the lip are different...

Have a go in Photoshop!
