Ella's Dx Ke70

cut it all out, then coat bare metal with a protective agent to stop it misbehaving in future. whether it be something like de-ox-it which adds a zinc-y kind of stuff and stops shit rusting, or something like penetrol thats a air tight seal, you choose, plenty of people with opinions to tell you what to use...

consider galvanising entire car once complete if you want, its not all that expensive...but i reckon itd still f@$kin rust. damn corollas.

 

plates should be around the same thickness as what you cut out. and as i said, as close as possible to the correct shape.

 

if you can weld, go for gold man :P

i couldnt weld and mine came up alright in the end.

 

check out these galleries if you ever need inspiration. don't mind the final colour :$ haha

 

you will note the old man in the photos, always ready to lend a hand
