On my FF, right where the cowl lights go.....there was a a rusty, rotted spot about 2 inches long by 1 inch tall....It included the 2 front holes for the cowl light.....In my mind, it was best to cut out the bad spot and cut a piece of sheet metal just a touch larger than the hole I cut out....Then I welded around the perimeter of the opening with the new piece on the back side of the panel...My plan is to use tiger hair bondo to fill the low spot created by welding the patch on the back side of the panel.....Does this sound like a good plan? I know it isnt as good as making a perfectly fit panel, but I dont have all the fancy shaping tools to make the perfect patch.....
