As Kenchan mentioned, some kind of epoxy would do the trick.

You could try JBWeld and some thorough sanding to get it flush. The hardest part would be the repaint, which would be best taken care of by a competent body shop.

I work in a body shop and I could fix that in 2hrs would be good as new.

Any "good" body man can fix that with the right supplies.

"DO NOT USE JB WELD" all plastics much use the right repair material that is compatible with the bumper you are working on or it will just bubble up and peel off.

In the past, I've used JBWeld with a few of the different OEM Nissan urethanes to much success...
