I think those cracks may show after priming/painting if you don't fill them and you won't be able to fill them because the voids are too tight. If that's the case, you may have to open them up and vee them out to get them filled.

The weird part is it doesn't feel like a void. That's the thin edge of the bumper and when I bend it some I can't feel the edge at all with my fingernail. Even bending it and trying to feel I can't.

So reading the other thread should I put a thin layer of 3M over the fine crack areas? Or put on multiple layers of the epoxy primer and that should fill the cracks in? Like I said you can't spread these cracks apart.
