Yup thats the stuff....good job most guys dont even take the time to get the right adhesive.

I say blend the pieces you have on the front bumper. I have not payed enough attention to the center peice so i cant comment on it really. One solid lip accross the center might look kinda plain, if you blend it in to the factory then you have a front that is partially your own!
