Pulled forward to a curb so I could back up and I guess my license plate got caught on it and when I backed up, the bumper came undone a little. It looks like the screw hole widened. Would a zip tie do the trick.
How do I fix this myself?

I would get some new stainless steel nuts and bolts and use larger stainless steel fender washers to hold everything together with the holes being that much oversized.

Zipties? How ghetto.....
xzmpt Thanks this. -
If it wasn't for zip ties half the trucks on the road would have fell apart. I used a bunch of em.

If I can’t fix it with duck tape and zip ties
It can’t be fixedDeere hunter, Sons Hero, Opus and 4 others Thank this. -
and if you can't fix it with a hammer, it's electrical.
I think I would try to do the same thing that got you here,
Only in reverse. Try to get against something and push it back together a little.
Then do the larger washer thing previously listed.Deere hunter, Sons Hero, austinmike and 4 others Thank this. -
I think California and Illinois require the plate to be zip tied to the grill.
