The other day i found a little bit of rust a little bit of bubbling rust under the bonnet of my E36 by the window washer tank. I was quite shocked as the car is in excellent condition I tried to sand it out but its terminal  its a whole right through??I have been advised the best way to fix would be to weld a steel backing plate under neath and then fill with body filler. Does this sound correct?? What make of body filler is good to use?? Thanks -------------
