I don't know if there is a special body filler for use on plastic bumpers. That might be something to ask an automotive paint supply shop about.
I do know that when you have paint mixed for use on plastic, they need to add a component (maybe more than one) so the paint adheres properly, and has the right amount of "flex" so it doesn't crack on every little thing.
A neat effect on C900s is to paint most of the bumpers and extensions in body color, and leaving the "bumper strip" in Anthracite or black. In the UK, they sold a "ruby edition" with just that treatment.
