I definitely will not be working in a body shop anytime soon.... that bumper repair stuff is tough to work with since its flexible..alot more difficult than bondo..so my results are not as good as expected..and you can see my repairs....but.. it is definitely better than it was and looks fine from a distance... its not as glossy as it should be.. not sure why.. maybe I need more clear coat? or maybe it needs to be buffed? not really sure..so any input would be great..

anyway..the before..

I filled the washer holes by epoxying plastic in the hole.. (my washers are broken and I have no desire to fix them...and I lost the covers)

I filled the license plate bracket holes with epoxy..then filled those holes, a couple gouges, and the washer holes with the bondo bumper repair..
