What is the best thing to do with the cab floor seam?

I have put my new floor in and was wondering what you guys have done to fill the gap at the outer edges of the floor seem under the footwell panel? I have weldeed the rest of the seam upto that point and dont know whether to continue or use a nother method because of how wide the gap is.

Fusor 123 ez. Its a two part seam sealer that self mixes in a tube that doubles as the tip. It will NOT stick to bare metal. You will have to put an etching primer on first.

the local paint store should have it or a variation of it. It will stick to primer and paint. You will have to sand it before your seal it. If they dont carry Fusor, they should be able to cross reference it over to a brand they carry.
