Some pics I got off the camera finally.

Here is the stamp die I made to recess the fuel door. I machined it and pressed the pins in to keep everything aligned as it gets pressed.



Close up shot of the filler door all in place now. The Ricks Stainless tank was also modified to get the filler to the new location and everything lines up great. Tim did a great job on this.




Here are the final shots of what the rear bumper looks like.
I can't speak enough about how good Tim is at metal shaping. I mean the metal on the bumper is thick and he formed and reshaped the ends and makes it look like its so easy. The rear of the car is still going to get a new spoiler and the exhaust cut outs. Then the back half of the car will be done.

Yes the car is getting closer. I just need to decide which Billet tail light I'm going to use.

I can just stamp one and mail it out.
Maybe I should offer that fuel door and stamping. You can put it on any car I guess.

Bob.... that looks great...

Whats the diameter of the recess? I'm gonna try and use the Ridetech one but since it will be under the license plate on my car, I want to recess it too.....

The diameter is bigger than the ride tech ones.
My recess area is 4.75in diameter.
