[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16454836, member: 70025"] Then it was time to start working on the firewall. Originally there are support braces that went from the shock towers to the firewall area. Well, shock towers are gone, so I wanted to shave that lip with the bolt holes off. I think it looks so much cleaner now. I still need to do more cutting/clean up in the corners. However, I wanted to get things welded up and grinded smooth. Should look pretty cool once the body work is completed. Here is the lip with the holes I was talking about. FUGLY...….. [ATTACH=full]1651830[/ATTACH] Here is my initial cut. There are two spots you can see I got a little over zealous with the cutting wheel. Oh well, can patch those areas up later...…... [ATTACH=full]1651831[/ATTACH] Time to address the lip on the drivers side. [ATTACH=full]1651832[/ATTACH] Got some spot welds in place just to keep everything in place. [ATTACH=full]1651833[/ATTACH] Side view to show how much cleaner it looks. As mentioned, I still need to work on the corners. [ATTACH=full]1651834[/ATTACH] More spot welding...… [ATTACH=full]1651835[/ATTACH] Here is how it looks once the spot welds are ground smooth. Should look killer once body work is completed. [ATTACH=full]1651836[/ATTACH] Ended up getting the patches welded in, but did not have time to grind smooth. It was hitting 106 outside again. Damn, it's hot LOL...... [ATTACH=full]1651837[/ATTACH] Second patch...….. [ATTACH=full]1651838[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
