well personally i would leave it to the pro's but you would need p40 + p38 from halfords and smooth it out, but silicon and shit like that in the paintwork will ruin the filler, its a huge huge job and very difficult to get spot on

honestly im running round in circles here, i have said before and im going to say agian, leave it to the pro's
tell your mate, otherwise if he doesnt like the finish he will argue and its not worth fucking up your mates bumper really is it,
or ignore me bite the bullet and if you do a decent job be proud of yourself
