S13 Sunroof delete coupe

Ok so before anyone says it, I know I?m a fuckin retard for doing this. I did this a few years ago.

My sunroof was leaking like crazy and glass was cracked so I decided to try and get rid of it. I?m tall so my head was hitting the electric sunroof case anyway. I welded some sheet metal to close the sunroof. (I tried everything but I can?t get the pic to be smaller)
As you can see in the pic, it?s not perfectly rounded like the rest of the roof so there is a ?flat spot? where the sunroof is.
I?m going to try to weld a support on the inside of the roof so it won?t vibrate and when I push up the panel from inside, it moves up about a quarter to half inch. It?s still not enough to make it perfect.

I don?t want to fill it with nearly an inch of bondo so I?m hoping to fill it with maybe fill it with something more solid... Does anyone have an idea of how I should go about this
I?m thinking I could either?

A. Fill it with it with fiber glass or something else...

Or

B. Cut the metal back out and put in a pop up sun roof so I won?t hit my head. Only problem with that is I can?t find a ?pop up? sunroof that fits the s13 coupe.

I?m looking for a permanent solution as I?m trying to restore this car.... I?m hoping to make her beautiful again. New paint job and everything.

Any help is seriously appreciated.... thank you
