Hey all,
I've got some sweet teardrop marker lights that I'm looking to install on my 1969 Little Dipper. However, I didn't anticipate the gigantic gap I would encounter when trying to mount the lights on the top rear due to the curve in the body shape. Check the pics.

Ofcourse the mesa isn't helping the issue either.
I would really like to find an alternative to piling butyl tape in there to fill the gap. I expect that will look terrible. Is there some kind of sand-able epoxy or caulking that I can put in there and then shape it to the gap? Should I custom build a filler that can slide in there (if so what do I make it from)?
The marker lights where all removed when I got this so i don't have a good reference for how the previous owner did this other than where the lights were mounted.
I would appreciate any ideas
