i'm removing all the side molding on my truck, looks like i have 1/8" and 1/4" holes. will fiberglass alone be enough to fill the holes or will they need to be welded. i was thinking the smaller holes might be ok i don't know about the other ones.

You need to weld them up, because if you just use filler they will bubble and rust. The truck in my gallary, I welded up all of the holes and it turned out pretty good if you weld them up level enough you wont have to use hardly any filler to get them straight. Just keep the heat down by skiping around between like 2 or 3 holes, it will help prevent warping.
