never use bondo for anything more then smoothing out the surface before pant. if anything, get a fiberglass repair kit, and just fallow the dirrections and apply the fiberglass matting to the back of the lip then use a SMALL amount of body filler to fill in the crack to smooth it for paint.

for all this trouble though, i would just find a new lip
