First of all thanks for your service!

How about an off the wall avant garde approach. Wad up a slew of dollar bills and glue them to the wound? Naw just glass it the nice thing about fiberglass is you can grind it off and start over again if not happy. Just do it and have fun- protect your lungs when sanding. Tim

I'm a woodworker so...

I'd go for the woodworking repair. It doesn't look like the opening extends much above the trim. I'd make a new piece of trim that was just wide enough to cover the opening. I'd make the trim piece the same size all the way around the opening so it didn't look like a patch job.

Since I am much more the wood worker than the fiberglasser, I will most likely try the wood working first, and post a pic for everyone to judge. If it looks good, problem solved....if not I can try to glass it.

Great post Don!
