Question Front Lip Mounting Question

So here's the deal. I've been talkin on here a while about me wanting to make my own body kit's n such. Well I gone an dood it. I began work on a front lip last week. Some poly-styrene, files, saws, glue, and the patience of one of the higher saints.

Got my fiberglass all ready to go as soon as the weather goes above 20degrees and I can stand to be in the garage for longer than 5 minutes. But I have a problem:

How the heck am I gonna get this thing I made to go on the bumber, and stay there!?!?!

I know, I know, sounds dumb right? But this isnt a body kit complete with clips and bolts and double sided tape and yada yada yada. This is my own creation. I thought about glassing in some bolts, but then I thought the first pot-hole or parking curb I hit and that lip is gone. I also thought about just glassing the thing onto the bumper whole, too much trouble, not guaranteed to work, and it'll never come off.

So, any ideas? The fiberglassing hasn't been done yet, so there's plenty of options still available. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated (except those that tell me just to go buy a front lip - wiseass )

thanks
peace

No love eh? Tough room. ieeee

well answer me this then....would the fiberglass stick to the plastic bumper? Should I fuse the lip onto the bumber with the glass, or are there some fun clips and things, or some space age adhesives out there that may help?

please help, despite my degree in ghetto engineering, Im havin some trouble with this one.
thanks

Wow I'm not an expert or anything but that's quite a dilemma. I'd try everything to see which would work. Better to learn which works and what doesn't. Just takes alot of practice
