Yeah I have a couple... of what I have ended up with after patching the big hole I had cut in it... I just couldn't get the light areas I had from the Camaro to match the radius of the trucks roll pan... it just wasn't meant to be. Maybe Ill find something else that will work and try again later. I really hate using up my limited time on wasted attempts... At least the roll pan is on and the grille matched it now. Just gotta do the finish work... BUT I'm not exactly happy about the center seam of the pan and may end up cutting it apart and reworking that before I can wrap it up.

And the way I ended up only welding the pan to the grille and then welded sides onto the pan to allow bolts into the fenders will allow removal of fenders if something ever happens... or removal of just the grill and pan as one unit.

On another note, I picked up this handy little attachment for the air hammer the other day when I stopped by Summit Racing for crimping edges of patch panels so that I can stop having to but weld everything... Works really nice and was only like 35 bucks.
