The front bumper on my wife's 2016 Lexus recently got damaged. No clue how =
as there are no signs of it getting hit. I was able to reattach this broken=
 bit using the original mounting clip but it obviously didn't hold.

Any thoughts on what I can use to try to fix this broken mount point so the=
 OEM clip will hold it?

Thanks
tim

I second E6000.  My wife hit something on the road that ripped the front =
edge of the rear bumper out of the brackets/clips by the rear tire - VW =
Jetta.  I reattached with E6000 about 5 years ago and it still holds.  I =
used some painters tape and a pair of spring clamps for about an hour to =
hold it together while it dried.

I have had good luck with E6000 gluing hard to glue
surfaces.  Maybe try E6000 along with the supporting
wire idea?
