fiberglass repair on my hood? I found a slightly rough spot under one of my "nostrils" the other day and when I pushed on it a little bit it caved in. What can I use to fill this hole? I don't mind just brushing touch-up paint over it to keep it from being noticeable. Luckily the position it's in is only noticeable with the hood open or if you're crouched down in front of the car.

if you can see it from behind, fiberglass back behind. I got to experiment with Bondo w/fiberglass included this past weekend and loved the results. Don't cost much and strengthens it before using filler. . .if you can see behind the hole that is. . .

You should use epoxy resin made for fiberglass, and tape it off where it will only get on the damaged area, then mask off the entire portion of the nostril where it wont be noticable, the block sand with a small block such as an end of a paint paddle then prime; block; prime, and then paint, wont ever be able to tell it was ever damaged then.
