i always use card for filler board cos its just easier and we always have loads of it lying about!
i also just get sum paper soaked in thiners and it takes the filler off straight away but also like said i have loads lying around my house and at work and always have one in my back pocket!

you can kind of make it out in this pic, from the side you can clearly see its a flowing circle around without the being like a bump where the bumper and arch join, the bumper did stick out over half an inch until i sorted it
