cut a hole out the same shape, plastic weld in, fiberglass the edges, skim of filler done, that pic looks better than the ones I have seen looks ok down there aswell, most put them in the bump strip bit seems to fit nicely there.
I was gonna do this when I was gonna fully smoth my boot, when I looked into it though, where u need to cut is exactly where the bumper supports are. SO would be hard to stop the filler from cracking as without the supports the bumper has alot of flex!

Get a 106 bumper and a saw, cut out the recess, cut a hole in the Saxo bumper and whack out the fibreglass / plastic welder.
