in guessing.
you would have to cut out metal plates in similar shapes to the red bits, weld them in plce and then filler and fiberglass till smoothe.

oh and then paint.

thats my car...
as said, metal plates cut and welded, then grinded to be nigh on smooth and a skim of filler over the top basically.

Cost me £80 including having the bonnet resprayed.
