Literally cut off the damaged section of fiberglass, replace that section as a single unit, glass it in and hide the seam. From the picture, you just need one corner of a body. Or you could always replace the whole body, but it is a pain to remove a SPF body, they are glued on with about 50 pounds of silicone adhesive. I have replaced an entire SPF body without removing the motor, I even drove it to the frame shop down the street without a body on it, that got some looks.
