Thats what I thought I have already pulled it off, which looks ugly, I dont want it to look more rednecked though, but it is not hard to put it back on either. Thanks for the input

Drill at hole at the end of the crack to stop it from getting bigger[&:] and then do the zip tie idea (for now)

You are correct about the actual bumper, another issue I need to figure out and fix.....it seems to never end.

Remove the bumper, make the repair from behind with fiberglass or problematic plastic.

Sand the repaint the face

Oh, that picture is way worse...NOCHANCE at fixing that. replace it... The metal bar under it is the reinforcement bar, it is HSS therefore harder to repair. Shops don't repair them b/c it's against industry standards. You can get one from Ford, a junkyard, or that company Keystone I told you about, or just make do...
