I also used a 220 welder with 035 wire to stretch my wheel wells and ya it's a pain. I also used fiber glass filler for all of the pin holes in the welds as well as some small gaps. Its water proof and won't absorb water like bondo will. For the top you need an SMC resin as the top is not fiberglass but smc. I used all resin and some matting in 3x6' strips. I laid about 5 to 6 layers over lapping them and get as many of the air bubbles out as possible. I screwed in 6 or so pieces of thick sheet metal 2x3' to keep the top square and I glassed over them. I also did both inside and out of the topper. I have some pics my build thred they are on photobucket in the link I posted so you arrow over and see all of them. I hope this helps. By the way I'm a paint and body guy by trade so not talkin out my A$$. LOL
I cannot get the pictures to post without a lot of extra work to size them down.
