Looks like a bad spot to have to ---- with. How much bondo did you end up using?

not too much bondo at all. First I pulled the interior panel and had my friend finesse the majoring out with his feet. Then i sanded to metal. Following that was stud welder madness. used like 100ish. then grind and sand. then bondo, then cheeze grater, then sanding more, the wetsand the back then primer.
