Default Bumper Repair

Hey guys, a friend was driving my rover and they ran it into a tree (lightly) the only damage is a few small cracks in the darn plastic bumper cover (miss the old D1 steel bumper). So I am currently looking for a simple plastic filler that I can put in and fill the holes and cracks with. I was looking at testors plastic putty but I am not sure if that will work too well. It does not need to have very much structural integrity but because the crack is on a corner it will need to be able to with stand aprox. 15lbs. of pressure continuously. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help!

It can be welded together, which will hold up like new.

I saw at harbor freight a plastic welder this week. I think it was about $40 or $60 bucks but not terrible.

That's right HF has a kit. Just be careful not to inhale the smoke....it is hazardous...
