I'd take it to a body shop if I were you. That's the only way it's ever going to be up to your expectations.

I have the WW bumper Fiberglass, put more holes and get another person to help place it, do what you need to do as long as it doesnt show!

Sell the kit and get stock parts back, that looks like ***. Otherwise car looks like it was taken care off.

Yes it will need fiberglassing, the one side is on a little crooked, the front looks decent except for the hood, the rear is terrible. Stick with one post.
