Firbeglass the hole, smooth the texture from the rest of the bumper to match, then paint it.

It was on my car when i brought it. Im temped to cut the bits for the splitter and use my Gte splitter on it and repair it.

As my Gte bumper the mounts have rusted away and its been sprayed about 10times

Either smooth it out and sell it for £££, smooth it and keep it (do your front bumper too, otherwise it will look odd.... lol), or ditch and find another. If you're confident enough to repair and smooth the bumper out, I'd go for that.

I think ill just chuck it :( or give it away

But If i cut the slots out for the splitter would it fit?

not worth spending the time on matey!! the money you would spend on filler and fibreglass you could get a new one from the scrappers.
