I am genuinely amazed that expanding foam did that :lol: looks top work mate :)
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

I put some on, let that dry then sawed off the foam to be flush with the bumper then foamed again till all the recess was solid with foam. I did that about 3 times. Then filled it.i brought the wrong type of filler I brought fibreglass filler and then sanded down then normal filler.
the surface was clean and I used a coarse sandpaper.for the foam to stick to.
