Front bumper repair

Hi all

I managed to take a chunk out of the o/s lower valance panel of the front bumper and wondered if anyone had successfully managed a good looking repair.
If so, could you let me know how you did it and what repair material to use on this reinforced plastic section.
A complete front end bumper at £300+ is the only alternative.

I thought you said the only other option was a new bumper @ £300, Mr pink was suggesting (although his post was a bit short/lazy Whistle ) you can get one for 50-70 quid if you have a good look on Ebay, miles better than sloping a load of bog on it Thumbs Up
