Looks like you could epoxy it..Just make sure you use some double sided tape to keep it held on this time.

where do I put the double sided tape? I have it but it did not hold, maybe because it was dirty... I ll try in the morning I got the 60 sec expoy bond So I hope this works? How do I avoid scratching my lip when I get out the driveway.

well the doublesided tape and epoxy will not be strong enough to hold it under impact. It will hold it up there though for a temp fix.

try backing out of your driveway differently -- i have a weird driveway too - my car is lowered and i always hit.

i back out on an angle - one tire at a time - never hits.

Neither adhesive will work well if you don't clean the surface first. Otherwise you're sticking dirt yo dirt.
