Sorry, I mis-typed my units, not 30cm, more like 1.5cm
What I'm saying is to cover hole at bottom of dent with metal circle just big enough to cover hole and leave it.
Then raise up factory threaded bracket with legs to proper height.
Like a bridge above dent.
This will then place threads for fairing at stock location. Whether you fill up dent or not with filler won't make difference to functionality of bracket since it's placed in proper location with 2 walls to raise it above dent.
Least amount of work and brazing. You just need to tack pieces in place with tiny brass drops. Can then bend and grind into proper position and do final seam at very end.
