That was kind of fun,to see the difference i was worrying for a long time and not sure how to trackle it was  a nice sense of accomplishment.My painter was going to just weld a piece of metal behind and fill it in with kitty hair fibraglass,glad i told him i didnt like that idea and replaced the metal.

Good call replacing the metal - once you repair something correctly, you can stop worrying about it permanently.  Your repair looks good and should last as long as the rest of the car.  Nice Job.
