When Frank reunited the new floor with the shell last year, he made new aluminum wheel well covers. A very nice addition, but it meant having to re-cut the inner skins so it fit over the new covers. I was nervous about messing up the skin (you can’t put it back and it doesn’t grow out), so I used cardboard to create a guide for cutting the aluminum skin. The template got me started in the right direction, but I still had to make several passes and dry fits before it was acceptable. I think it came out pretty well, the bleeding blisters on my fingers from the tin snips are healing.
