Stillen supplies urethane to bond them in place after bolting them together. My shop used their own filler, as they didn't know the long term effects of the supplied filler, and it was about 3-4 hours labor to fill and blend them. Howver, it held up, even after a collision with a baby deer, causing just a tiny crack.
Yet another reason why Stillen should have made it a single piece.

Yeah, that's what I meant. Not where it meets the fender. That would make removing the front bumper impossible in the future without damaging the paint. It doesn't even look like they used anything, just painted over it.
It might not bother you, but the shop should have done it properly. The car looks really good otherwise. Nice work.
