How do I fix this chipped bumper?
Hey everybody.. ok so I got a brand new fiberglass front bumper that I'm working on. It fits perfectly however one of the corners where the bumper meets the hood is kind of chipped. How would I go upon fixing it and making it go back to its "pointy" nature? Picture is attached.
Is there some kind of molding material I could use (ex. body filler) to reshape it? Thanks

Bondo and gotta reshape/sand it down until it looks right. Once that's done, repaint.
