had to patch it before i put the subframe in

the subframe was cut to close to the brace so i couldnt clean up the weld nicely. so i cut out some of the new subframe so i could achieve that

and the new connection

put a patch in this riser .no sense on getting a repop when only 1 tiny section was rotted out

this piece in my opinion this rear panel below the decklid is the biggest pain to get out of an A

after i got it out had to redrill and tap all 8 screw holes in the rear subrail
