depends on the style of your boot, but the best way is to get plates welded in then skimmed over with filler, they look good on mk4 astras too.

a good bodyshop would be my first point of call.

dont let anyone fill the hole with filler as the first big bump u go over it will fall out :)

A couple of ribs welded to the rear of the plate is a good idea aswell to stop it warping plus that little bit stronger and less likely to crack out
