TBH mate it will all crack in due time

or sink, or warp etc

id fibreglass over the holes, using matting etc and make sure the metal is tack welded in place to stop it moving

then id sand it back till its just below the level of the bonnet, and then a skim of body filler over the top to sand back till its smooth and flat
