Yes, that's what I should have done.
Makes far better edge.

Did you put the side panels over the floor?
OR
Side panels on, then floor?

Obviously including rivets and sticky stuff

[dogwood]

Floor then side panels.

I rivited the floor then put the sides on.
So ended up with double rivits
I should have rivited through both at the same time.

Wish I has asked this BEFORE making my side panels

I might knock the bend out and reform it anyway

I suppose covering the tranny tunnel will help keep the nice shiny propshaft a bit cleaner

start at one end and work towards the other or in the middle and work out otherwise you could end up with creases in the middle, it suks, trust me
