Default damaged ( 1" star shape crack ) on front bumper

My 94 has a weird star shape appeared, cracks in paint on the top of the front bumper. Took off the bumper and found a repair underneath..took it to my local paint shop ( Im in the UK ) and they said yes they can spray it OK but what on earth do we need to repair the flexible bumper..they have tried a couple of UK repair kits but they wont take to the basic bumper material, and when they did they reacted after painting when in the the bake oven! Help..is there a special repair kit or special sealer paint for these bumpers?
Thanks JohnUKVetteNut.
PS I am the one who said "my van stops quicker than my vette" and when the bumper is done I can tell you if all my upgrades have worked..new slotted drilled rotors (13") new HPS pads, new fluid, overhaul of calipers ( nothing bad found in them but new seals anyway)new braided hoses last year.
