Plastic welding is actually the process of using a special, soldering iron like, tool to melt the plastic of the spoiler, the bumper, and a 3rd flexible, solder like, plastic. Then blending all the plastics together to form a bond. No glew or putty was used to hold it together.
The finishing putty to do all the cosmetic work was a 3M product that is a flexible putty to prevent cracking.

Nice finally seeing your ride yesterday man and finally meeting you! Looks a hell of a lot better in person then just pics on the forum. Wish you could have made it to the photo shoot. The red would have been a nice mix in sea of black G's Fezzik's beautiful vert was the only variety that we had!
Lip looks great though, looking forward to seeing the rest of the things you were talking about come to fruition!

What is fruition??
Thanks my man! I actually did the work myself so I just paid for materials and the parts. I can't estimate what a shop would charge to do it. I would definitely find one who has done this type of work before.

Bumper turned out amazing, and looks even better in person! Definitely worthy of some mad props on the hard work and attention to detail which I know first hand.
Bondo? Really? Please don't even use that word on these forums...leave it to the honda and chevy forums
Poly Urithane "FUSING" (Lord Fusor or 3m 2part epoxy) is NOT cheap, not to mention 90% of bodyshops won't even TOUCH it because its so time consuming, and risky. Ususally starts out by a 2 stage "cement/glue", riveting, a LOT of sanding, very little filler, and paint. A shop would charge you 500-1000 just for the molding process, not to mention painting.
Don't worry about it, Jared just pulled sh*t outta his ***...literally
