    When I was spray painting my bumper lower lip. Wiggled it loose so I could tape better but it came loose. This is what it looks like after gluing back together. The issue is with the little rubber trim not wanting to stick and looking fugly. Had a few ideas but want to see what yall think.

    IDEAS
    1. Replace with factory parts and repaint.
    2. Wide pin striping along the line,blue or black.
    3. Reflective tape square.
    4. Euro fog lights
    5. Long LED strip,either red or white
    6. New blinker/reflector
    7. Putty/bondo the bumper to look like one piece then paint.

    I'm going to say I think you like working on your car and have your own personal standards.

    Therefore, all those options are OK. The trick is what do you want to do?

    I can barely see anything.

    My only opinion is that with a white vehicle I kinda like a cleaner look. So I might avoid adding "bling" in the form of a LED strip or reflective tape.

    Don't mind the dirt. Leaning towards gluing this again then pin stripe.
