Right i crashed ages ago recked my front nose cone and the only second hand one i could get was well poor at most, it has half the indicator hole missing and i need to build the plastic back up because it looks soo tacky! I have a fibre glass kit but not sure if thats the best option for making the gap up thanks

If you have parts of your original cut out the piece you need from it and weld it in using a soldering iron , a cable tie can act like a welding rod giving you some extra molten plastic to work with.

You can then use the fiberglass at the back of repair to strenghen it.

Once its all filled , sanded and primed it will disapear and ready to paint.
