ok where the rear bumper and the rear quarter panel, to mold that together, what would you put in between that space, would it be some kind of clay, I was thinking fill that space with clay if they do sell any kind of clay for body work at a auto store, ok will fill it up with clay then put some fiberglass and then to make it smooth put bondo, that should work right or fill that space with bondo then put fiberglass and then to smooth it out with bondo.
if they do sell somekind of clay, where would they sale it and what's the best brand, and what's the best brand for bondo

I really wouldne recomend molding body parts unless your a show car and dont drive. It would eventualy crack and you wouldnet be happy. but you would sand down the panels to metal and you fill it in with bondo if it was a small gap. The best brand bondo is bondo.

Ya highly NOT recommended. It will crack and then you will have to repaint your quarter panel and rear bumper. I use 3M products mainly. To do it right you should probably reinforce it with more than just bondo....
