Auto body repair & detailing: Honda Plastic Bumper, honda bumper, honda emblem


Question
Hi Gary!

1. What kind of adhesive/filler should I use to fill in the holes (about 0.25 inch diameter) for the Honda emblem and license plate attachment prior to painting? I want a smooth looking bumper. The material needs to allow sanding and painting.

2. What should the bumper preparation be prior to filling the holes?

I have a new OEM Honda bumper cover for a 2000 Honda S2000. The material is not stamped on the back side. It is black plastic and would likely drag if sanded rather then create powder.

Thanks for your help.
Rob
