I'm not an expert on it, but I'd either plastic weld a sheet of plastic behind it, or get some metal mesh (thin) and then fiberglass within it (if that makes sense) - then obviously filler over the front until it's clear.

Cut up a coke can, flatten the metal out and stick it to the outside. from inside the bumper, fibreglass a few sheets over the hole, once dry remove the can metal and fill the remaining hole using flexible filler

they clip in mate, the clips are at either side of the cap and the caps slide into the clips if you get me lol. easy enough to pop in and out.
