Alright so I took my bumper off yesterday. I found that the tab closest to the fender has broken off. Would I be able to epoxy it together? Or JB Weld? I'm also missing a whole bunch of bolts along the bottom. Are there supposed to be clips along the front bottom of the bumper as well?

I don't know for sure but the bottom bolts might be for the f-sport lip thing.

I think either one should work fine.

Keep us updated on the repair. I broke a tab also and will be using JB weld to fix the tabs.

Hopefully, it has enough strength to hold the bumper.
