DO NOT use bondo...it will crack and fall off very quickly, expecially on the door from being closed, i personally wouldnt use fiberglass either, because fiberglass and steel have totally different expanding qualitys therefore, the fiberglass would fall off in the long run as well.
take the car to a reputable shop and have them weld over the spot the moulding used to be, then use body filler to smooth it perfect, it is alright to use body filler, just very sparingly

u cant use just bondo cause it will fall into the door, i used that fibreglass mesh the people use for drywalling, then put long strand fibreglass over on that.
