Do you have a pin vise? Drill out the posts where it broke and insert a small rod or sewing pin in the joint. If you just glue it without reinforcement it'll be weak, if it stays on at all. If you don't have a pin vise you could epoxy a rod behind the posts where it is least visible.

Pin vise, eh? How much would one of those cost and where would I purchase one? What about a drill press with a small tiny ity-bity drill bit?

coming along pretty good :) . the rear end looks very similar to how mine started out. i would suggest that you add the rear bumper on there as well before you add the putty. that way the body lines would flow much better. just remember to add the panel line back in when done sanding. on one final note, get rid of the slanted plastic card on the top of the rear flares... you don't need them. just cover it up with putty and sand it down to the desired contour. it'll work much better than trying to recreate the contour with plastic sheet.
great start!
a.
p.. did you remember to strip the paint from the body before you started the bodywork? putty would adhere much better to plastic than paint... and the paint will clog your sandpaper.
