Bumper repair

Hey guys, well I've been a lurker for some time, but decided to share some of the work I did today, nothing special just a plastic weld on the front bumper, I bought a 2000 Limited 4runner, came with a bull bar but the PO nailed a deer with it, drove it with the bull bar for a while which was hiding the crack on the plastic bumper behind, After taking the bull bar off i decided not to put it back so this crack was just bothering me. Next week i'm putting on the PIAA headlamps back on but got to drill the bumper as well.

plastic repair kit- $12
Glazing putty- $5
Touch up paint -$12

I didn't want to buy a new bumper as I plan on getting a ARB soon, so this will keep me rolling for a while

some of the other pics, I did a quick paint job as i wasn't looking for something perfect, a few more coats when it drys and i'll use some finishing sandpaper before i do the final paint job, I'll post some more pics of the final fit up with the PIAA headlamps,
any suggestions to installing the lamps without drilling to bumper?

Hey! A fellow Canadian! I have a work colleague that once worked at a Grocery Store in Fort McMurray!

It's looking a lot better man! A little more sanding or even some light bondo, will have that bumper looking Great again! Keep up the good work! As for the lights, are you mounting them on top of your bumper....or in the valance??? My sig has a pic of my setup with some 7" lights (I think they are 7"...) mounted inside. I used some epoxy, and recycled some margerine containers to build some light pods to graft into the valance, but your Piaa's could easily be mounted into the fat lip bumper valance and look great!
