        Looks good. How come you chose not to keep some of the lines and make your own?

                    Idk maybe it's just me, but the lines for the square rectangle thing look off. Maybe you did it on purpose, but I know when a lot of people shave their bay the lines for this stand out... Idk I'll edit a picture in this later for reference..

                        The like rectangle/square on the top of the wheel well. I'm shaving my bay also, and welded up a piece on there too, but the lines are still there, there's just no indentation... if you get what I mean....

                          I just wanted the wheel tubs to look a but smoother more then squared off. If I would have kept the lines it would have looked awkward IMO.
