Always take the paint off before you put any kind of bondo substance on it. Practice with the grinder and all you will need is high build primer. Be careful a weld is alot harder than the sheet metal (opps now you got a hole to weld up) Good luck if you have ???s ask a body man not an engine man

You could carbon fiber it, then paint over the carbon fiber (I guess) and never have to worry. It would take a SHITLOAD of torque to crack that stuff. You'd probably end up twisting your unibody before you snapped some carbon fiber. It'd be an expensive project, but damn, can you imagine the visual impact that would have?
