This little corner right here is proving to be a huge PITA!

Lowes or HD. I'm pretty sure this is what I used:

RMAX Pro Select R-Matte Plus-3, 1 in. x 4 ft. x 8 ft. R-6.0 Foam Insulation Board
https://www.homedepot.com/p/RMAX-Pro...7900/313501508
SKU# 313501508

​​I think there's a bit of leftover out in the shed. I'll try to remember to take a look later.

Thanks, Ohio. I think I need to go wander around HD and see what I can find.

Bear, I've never heard of Black Magic body filler.

Tomorrow looks to be a good day that I can paint. I need to really get this damn side panel wrapped up. Over the winter I am going to try and find a decent drivers door. Hope to also swap hoods this weekend.

Did you get any heat warpage working on her ? That can be the worst lol.

How does the ground affect fit...tighter than a bulls **** in fly season ? Nah, does it fit well, did you sample the fit yet ?

I've only held the ground effect up to it. The three holes are where the bracket goes to hold it. I was waiting to paint it before I rivet the bracket back in there.

He WAS little. He's now 53 pounds! Raw food diet for the first year, then I'm hoping to scale back to something a bit more economical. I think we spend as much feeding him as we do feeding me (maybe more)!
