I've seen guys use a light coat of duraglass to help cover the welds and such, however all that is a PITA to sand out.

bondo is easier to sand in the little joints but will crack over time if the joint flexes a little. duraglass and kitty hair is just "stronger" bondo with fiberglass fibers in it. but can be super hard to sand in tight spaces. my advise is bondo if the pieces are really stiff and duraglass if you think they will flex a little when driving hitting bumps and what not.
