For the glue, we used this special 2 part plastic epoxy stuff. It costs like $30 a tube, but once it cures, its freaking strong. Then for filler, we used the normal bondo/body filler.

I'm gonna do it! I think i will lay fiberglass on the inside of the bumper all around the "loose" pieces just for added stability

Could you post pics of the car, so we can see the face from a distance, and the whole look of it?

I was a little concerned in the beginning, but that thing turned out nice! If you have the bumper off again any time soon, it wouldn't be a bad idea to fiberglass the back-side of it, like mauisurf2003 said. Then again, that two part epoxy is d@mn near bulletproof, so you may never get any splitting in the bondo layer. Meh, regardless...nice work!
