Went back and blended the panel with additional metal to correct the door curve. Tested the door and it fit so truck is getting some mud then paint.

Took it to the 33rd Rubithon, drove there and home in the darn thing. 7 hours each way. At $0.50 per mile.
Was well worth it.
Did not know him, was at Ice House Resort when I pulled up and took the opportunity to take the photo. And the hood is off as a traditional 2nd day thing on the Rubicon. Everyone does it apparently. Actually I burnt up a Alternator the first day, get hot underhood temps (although it could be from bad wiring on the alternator killing the internal regulator on them). Luckily I carry a spare alternator so it was not a big deal. With my built intake I get much better Air Intake Temps than before along with both fans keep the engine cool but there is still a lot of heat created.Those pictures look amazing. Do you know the FJ cruiser with the similar plate from before? And is the hood on the roof trick for engine cooling purposes?

I hate to use any! I see that I could get good at it, but I have no desire to do enough to get good at it.
