Here are a couple things to look at. Take it to NAPA. Or O'Reily's. They will have a glue to repair that.
Rest in Peace Charlie!

Well I can't beat that - oil and filter change, as well as inspecting a tire that went down to 29 psi, tripping the TPMS. No nails or bubbles when spraying it down, but there was a very slight dent on the inboard rim. Driving it to Baltimore tomorrow.

I used it a truck. Hauled 10 40 lb bags of dirt to fix some low spots in the yard. I did that twice.
Rest in Peace Charlie!

Oh and here's a video I used as a reference to remove the front bumper.
