Gluing metal to plastic?

So on the rear bumper cover on the bottom there are 3 3-4" long tabs that hold the bottom of the bumper in place, the replacement bumper cover I got they were all broke off and I didn't think to grab the ones off my old bumper before I tossed it out. I figured it would be fine, until the other day when it snowed quite a bit and the snow started piling up inside the rear bumper cover and started twisting the rear bumper, so I figure I should just fix it.
Now I was thinking that some aluminum sheet would be fine to use and make those tabs out of, I just don't know what would be a good glue/adhesive to use to attach them to the bumper cover.
I was thinking something along the lines of this stuff http://www.repaintsupply.com/pd-sem-68442-clear-fast-set-adhesive.cfm
Just looking for opinions/recommendations or to see if anyone has any experience with these kinds of things.
 


being you cant really see those tabs, id make new metal tabs, then drill a hole and nut and bolt or rivet the tabs to the bumper cover.
