Great progress man, especially Phillip. Go Phillip!!!! :giggle: He did a great job welding. A little spotty, but it's going to be smoothed down no matter what.

You should photoshop it if you can, choose a color that stands out like CRAZY - so crazy that people from the other side of the car show come over to see your car. If you really want to, you can make a pattern like zebra or something (Don't do zebra, it's just an example)
energy suspension bushing look real good.
Ok spent another four hours in the garage today working on this bay...
used a wire brush to clean up some of the back firewall
