Let me get this out of the way straight away: Just because it is the right way doesn't under no circumstances mean that the effort is in any relation to the final outcome.
But first (once more) remove a layer of around 5mm of bondo and treat the rotten bits to some fresh metal.
Plus some superfluous holes in the front bumper.
All pretty standard and, dare I say, reasonable stuff. Until I realized I wanted proper stainless M4 bolts instead of the self tappers. Welcome to my little rabbit hole.
Obviously, if you do this on the front, you have to do this on the back as well. Luckily there it was "just" a matter of tig-welding on M4-nuts to the original bumper.
I'd say the end result is some nicely affixed lights.
Definitely not something I'd want to do again.
