Default Front Lip Repair?! (Searched)

Yeah, so as the title states, I've got a minor problem. I let my buddy drive my car for one day... One ******' day, and that night he comes home and there's duct tape holding up my front lip.

Anyhow, after chewing his *** out something terrible, I pulled it off. Put your finger in the button holes of your shirt, then pull until they rip and can't support a button anymore... That's how the underside of my bumper looks. Every hole for the little "clips" has been torn straight out on the drivers side...

Is there any way to fix this? It can't even support a new lip in it's current state... Any help is much appreciated.

my lip was broke just about in half and I repaired it with that fiberglass stuff.. its actually stonger now. You should be able to use that stuff and then re drill the holes where you need them and then paint it or whatever after that.

Home Depot, Autozone, Lowes etc... Get gloves if you're working with resin and fiberglass.
