Default Is Focus bumper ABS or polypropylene? What Glue to use ?

Hi, My car is a 2011 ford focus. I have a very small chip to my front bumper. No holes, just need to connect 2 vertical pieces together. This are part of the semi flexible molded plastic bumper and not the rigid plastic part you find on the grille. I went to bunnings and most of the super glues and araldite have warnings that you cannot use it for most plastics like PTFE, polyethylene and polypropylene. I am guessing that the bumper bars of newer cars are now polypropylene (PP). Anyone out there have any experience in gluing small broken parts in their plastic bumpers together I want to hear your experience. I don't need any backing material as it is not a hole. Thanks everyone in advance.
