Default C4C5 Specialist please....

I have a gouge in my rocker panel (about 4" long and 1/8") deep. What product needs to be used for correct repair? Havn't received my service manuals yet, so can't look up the correct repair. Thanks. :cheers:

A new rocker panel or fiberglass body filler and sand paper.

Nassyvette: You may not realise it but fibreglass body filler is not necessarily the correct thing to use on some areas of the body. That's why I wanted to get an expert opinion. Thanks anyway. :cheers:
