I did put a thread up mate a while ago but there is two ways to do it tbh ya can use plastics filler and fill them in completely or get strips of plastic and plastics weld them in
If it ain't green and black send it back

Plastic welding's your best bet in the long term mate. Filler tends to sink with age, but they both work well

Expanding foam would be the easiest way of doing your number plate recess imo. If you're on about where will you put the number plate then anywhere you want hahaKieranKizzyjones wrote:A ok I see. What about a number plate hahaha
