Brilliant! My daughter's 2012 Corolla is all beat up and we certainly didn't want to pay to have all the clips and fittings replaced. Both sides were hanging off between the headlight and wheel well. I used Permatex Black Plastic Welder. 5min set, 10min cured. The black line between the two panels looks great and intensive wiggling shows everything to be stuck up in there really well! Thanks!

Idiots think they need to put their tires up to the curb or sidewalk instead of realizing their cars are about two and half feet in front of the tires. Figure out where the front of your car is, park there. Or, pull up until your tires run into something and tell you to stop, it's just plastic.

TIP: Firstly thanks so much for the clear instructions. I just finished my repair. Try carefully peeling the masking tape away when the glue is 2/3rds dry. I did this on the second side and had perfect results. First side i has the same tearing as in the video and has to use a razor blade to finish the tape removal. Rather than duct tape, i just help the bumper in place with my hands (actually a leaned my whole body into it and used my hands). The bumper was not a nicely refitted as in the video so duct tape would never have worked.

Yeah man, I'm so glad I read your comment before trying this. I sat on a crate and positioned my knee so I could add pressure to hold it in place. After about 5 mins I started to peel the tape off whilst still holding it with one hand and with my knee. Getting the tape off before it hardens made a massive difference, there was sill a little bit that I had to cut out but I reckon your comment alone saved me about 30 mins. TIP: If you're reading this, wear a glove and push the glue in with your finger, it goes in cleaner and further.

I bought the materials when I made my above comment. It took me a minute, but in the meantime, someone smacked the other side and broke that clip. I followed your instructions and both sides of the bumper came out beautiful. I was able to find a clear self mixing epoxy with a detachable long nozzle. It was basically injecting the epoxy. The paint tape and duct tape worked great. I used alcohol on a cotton ball to remove the small amount of duct tape residue. It’s been bugging me all this time. Don’t know why I waited so long. Probably 20 minutes total to fix both sides. Good as new.

I have a rental car business that rents to gig workers, and wow they can mess up some cars lol. Doing this is much more cost effective than replacing the bumper even if I were to do the bumper replacement myself with aftermarket parts.

I found an easier way! If you remove some of the clips holding the plastic liner of the wheel well, so you can get access to the 'inside' of the quarter panel, you can reach in, pull off what's left of the old broken bumper clips, and insert a ZIP TIE there instead. You then thread the length of zip tie to the hole on the bumper and bring it around to the other part of the zip tie where the hole is. You then pull up the excess length of the zip tie, pulling up the bumper, and that's it, fixed.

Strong, no mess (especially when the tape is left on for long periods), and comes off easy too. Only draw back is about 4X more expensive. I like Gaffer Power brand; Amazon has it in multiple colors and different widths.

I had the same idea. But I didn’t use painters tape. That is a good idea. Thanks for saying to use painters tape. I used duct tape, but mine was lacking in adhesive, so it did not stick well at all. Use a duct tape that has a lot of adhesive. I am going to do it again. Thanks for the great video.

Thank you for your video. I have a 2004 Chevy Malibu it doesn't have a lot of years left but it is mechanically sound. I will be using this technique on the bumper. But prior to the bumper being tapped the other day I was hearing a sound and it was emanating from the trunk. So my guess is it's the spoilers loose. What can I do? Can I put some kind of sealant around the base of where it attaches to the trunk? I have touched myself and it doesn't have any gaps that I can see. So it has not broken off. Or maybe it has on one side I just can't tell. Anyway I was half thinking of using a glue called Flex glue that they claim can be used on any surface. I was even wondering if it could be used on the bumper. Cosmetically my car has damage so I'm not freaked out about it not looking showroom floor.

You can also remove the plastic piece with the broken clips and repair that with jb weld or even better replace it with a piece from the junk yard. Also a Toyota with 175k easily has another 100k miles on it if it has been well maintained.
