when filling the grove, really mash it up 1st, other wise the filler or whatever you decide to use will not stick. if your car is an everyday use car, use a plastized filler, as this will flex more before it cracks. the grove is a flexible part of the bumper because it is so thin. | |

be careful with the mouse mate when u get to the smoothing stage as u can flatten the bumper and will have to fill it again. | |

just go to your local motorfactors and get a nice tub of 'body filler' will cost about £4 for nice size tub. | |

to fill in the 'groove' on the bumper i used an angle grinder (lightly) to mash up the surface, so the body filler could stick. (there isnt really much room to use fibreglass in the groove). then apply the body filler, and sand down using the mouse. | |

you will need some tigerseal (glue) to stick the splitter on. | |
