In this video, I show how I repaired a small rust hole in the inner wheel well of my Lexus GX470 using Bondo. Rust in the wheel wells is a common issue on older SUVs, especially in areas exposed to road salt and moisture, but you don’t always need to weld in new metal to stop it from spreading.
This DIY GX470 rust repair walks through the full process step-by-step — from cleaning and prepping the rusted area, treating the corrosion, applying Bondo body filler, shaping it, and sealing everything to help prevent future rust. This method is ideal for small rust holes where a full patch panel or welding repair isn’t necessary.
