Default Little update
Got all the N/S welded up, was not as bad as i thought it was going to be.











Gaz making sure body kit fits nice still. Was a little scared of arch warping when it
was welded but fits nice.

Stunning, and what i love the most is you are very bothered about getting it looking really decent underneath! (no signs of the welds) Great Work!
