LOL ..
i didnt do that..
i pretty much use a sand paper to get rid of the 2 bumps..
then got a masking tape and stick it from behind and start putty-ing it..

Of the crack.. not really... it was just a 1/2mm crack..

Here's mine.. it's the 2nd bar i've had shaved.. looks like mine was done in the masking tape method but it's been there 6-7 years with no cracks as yet.. the REST of the bumper is covered in cracks but not the plate-holes that were shaved..

the BEST way to do it IS to plastic-weld the holes THEN fill them...
