ur best off 2 buy the bumper repair product, comes in a dual tube and once its cured its the same as the polyurethane bumped material, bondo or glass will just crack off, and wont adhere properly 2 ur bumper

Fiberglass repair wont work cause its not a Corvette. Bumper repair product is the way to go, 3M makes them as well. Try to find a automotive paint distributor around you they should be able to point you in the right direction

Sh!tty knock off part that fits like crap? Cheapest I've seen for OEM (which is the only way to go) is over $150.
