First step- find out what the hell is under that bondo. Remove the light and start sanding.

Panel rusted all the way through I'm guessing? Only option is panel replacement if that is the case. You MIGHT be able to fab and weld in a replacement piece, depending on the extent of the damage. If you can't weld or fab, take it somewhere.

Or pile on the kitty hair bondo and slop paint on it.
