Just a tip: 

when you spread the body filler, do sections at a time.

then mix some more, Or you'll get in over your head pretty quick.

I find it easier to mix a little light on the hardener so you can cover as much as possible in one coat. It makes it easier to get things straight when it comes time to sand. But like anything with practice you will find what works best for you.
