I will regret it for sure. I've sold two valve amplifiers I built and regret those, time to learn from multiple mistakes. I will wrap it up and tuck it away though soon. It'd be nice to complete the available work though with the parts I have. I have a week of in a month. I'd like to get some rear arches fitted, complete the tonneau cover and fit all the lights. I'd feel good about that.

I have some rear arches on the way next week courtesy of vmax. I need to order some riv nuts or collapsible type nuts along with piping. I'd like it here ready for their arrival. Can anyone link me to what you get used so I can get ordering please?

Oh right dont plan on doing that.
But what i am going to do is cut some ali the shape of the lip that the bolts go through and put it on the inside to make it stronger so the bolts dont pull through the fibreglass if that makes sense

I was going to use penny washers with rubber washers to dissipate the load as best as possible.
