mate, p40 and p38 really aint gonna sort ur pillars.......they need to be propfessionally cut away and rewelded.

Filler, p38 or p40 will crack within a month.

as said above the fillers wont help, it need s to be welded. apparently even if welded it will crack in another place, its like fighting a losing battle.
