Today I was bored and felt like working on the car, so I put a GT-Four-style grill in the front bumper, and I think it came out ok. It sure looks a lot better than the massive spider-web cracks that filled that area of my bumper.
 Total cost was $1.07, and that was for the four feet of 3/16" rubber line that I cut a slit in to outline the cut out area. I got the mesh grill from my mechanic for free. Here's a couple pics.

Thanks for the comments everyone. I didn't use any sort of an adhesive to hold the black tubing on, and it holds fine because it's tight on the edges of the bumper. Oh, and before I went out tonight, I drilled a couple holes in the bumper and installed a new Toyota emblem. The front bumper looks way, way better now, and I'll be sure to take pics tomorrow.
