How do I Repair Holes in Car Bumper Cover?

Question

I have 2 holes in the front bumper cover. Its a plastic rubber type of cover. The holes are like the size of a nickle each.
How to I repair them? And when someone hits the bumper will it pop out?
I was thinking of latex caulking and then smoothing it out and painting it?
OR using bondo and sanding? 
BUt what should i filll the holes with?
Would JB Weld epoxy work?
What cheap expoxies would work?

thanks

you can use BONDO but for a good factory look a new cover costs around $300.

make sure you have something behind the repair that can support the bondo

as far as pushing it bacl out you can but it will always be noticable unless you fill sand and paint it

They make special plastic repair products for plastic bumpers.  An automotive paint supply store will have them.

You are also going to have to paint the cover to match.

If you want it to look like it has not been repaired take it to a reputable Body Shop.
