Figured I would work on closing the area around the gas tank filler neck. When I cut off the old tail panel and trunk floor I cut the piece I need in 1/2, cool huh? lol
OEM trunk floor is one piece, but repop does not close around the filler neck.
Got the 2 old pieces I need and made them one piece again. These pics are of the first time test fitting. It will need to come down about 1". I will trim it alittle at a time so I do not come up short.
