Plastic should be welded. I use strips of ABS (cuts of old, trash fairings), and a soldering iron. Weld, sand, repeat until smooth.

You want to use minimal filler to get any small bubbles or dips that can't be smoothed out completely. Melt through the panel and twist it around once cold to make sure it won't crack.
