Plastic weld the bumper to the arches and smooth everything in using bumper fill if you want the smooth look. Or plate it over with a thin sheet of metal then fibreglass over.

Smoothed ridge out 97-00 front bumper

I would say smooth it out looks 10x better!

I thought of using your car as an example bt couldnt think of your username
