best way to fill turn signals

I want to fill the turn signals on my stock 93 bumper i was thinking of fiberglass but i would think it would crack since the bumper is flexible and fiberglas is not. Any suggestions?

Here is a quick pic of what i want to do don't mind the little white dots.

Well fiberglass is going to be about the only thing that is going to be able to fill that. Another thing you can do is go to a junkyard and get another bumper from any car as long as it is made of the same material. Cut out pieces to use as patches to fill the holes in your bumper then use minimal fiberglass from behind the whole on the edges of the holes.


But what you are planning to do IMO will not look good. It doesn't flow with the car.

i just hate the stock turn signal so i wanted to replace them with something that i can hide easily and leds are small enough to do that with.
