Yeah, I guess I'm gonna have to. Did you heatgun specific areas? because you can't keep the entire lip heated at once. I think what I'll do is take the front bumper off first this time so its more malleable to me bending the lip around it.

first i bolted one side on, then had my cousin heat up the corner and i pulled really hard, then i pulled it around the other corner and had my cousin heat that up while i pulled really hard, and then it eventually fit on and bolted.

I just jammed it on there. Bolted one side and stretch that thing out and bolted the other side. No heat gun, but still looks ugly with bend in the middle.

I just snapped my front lip couple months ago too, it was horrible!
