Throw it in the bin and weld up the recess with some thin steel plates, then smooth over.

they will work - but if u want it to last use bi or tri axial woven roving matt if u can get hold of it - too many max power readers assume that p40 glass and resin is actually fibreglass - its shitty filler for use after rovingis applied ( badly) - if I put it on for u at SR FibreCustoms - Id rove it on - bond it with polyester resin to ur tailgate - and a skim of polyester resin/glass dust fill it - it would almost never crack and wouldnt be "shitty " as some people assume - all depends how its done - I'll glass arches on without them cracking as well - in a "secret way" but if u get it done cheaply expect it to crack
