merging s4/s5 bumper together

The deal is, I have a S4. I also have a spare S5 bumper sitting around. For what ever reason, i like the way the rub-strip/ trim, or what ever you want to call it on a S4 looks. I also like the way that the lower part (below the trim) of the S5 looks. What I'm wanting to do is graft the lower part of the S5 onto the mid/upper part of the S4 bumper. I haven't decided on how I'm going to make the cuts yet. But i do have a few ideas floating around in my head.

The biggest problems I have come across so far is bonding them. I don't want to just fiberglass them together, due to the fact that i want to retain flexability. Secondly, I'm not 100% sure on the material ther are made of. Seems to be a sort of ABS or somthing, but as stated, im not sure.

SO, if you could point me in the direction of the material that im working with, that would be great. Also, if you know of a glue/epoxie/bonding agent that works for said material, that is even better!

For now, I will be searching McMaster carr for what I 'think' I need.
