Rest assured that it didn't take any strength out of the bumper by the time I was finished!

Red hot screwdriver (soldering iron just not hot enough) in and twist slightly then melt the join and surrounding area and feed plastic strips in. I smacked it not long after and couldn't believe how well it held up!
