Going a 75mm top pipe, and similar to clunk's photos, going to have a 50mm pipe coming from the bottom near the tow bar end, but bend it up and wrap it around all the way directly under the top tube but tapered in slightly to follow the top to bottom line of the car. With me?? lol

Hopefully it'll turn out ok!!!

Haha!!! Fair enough too!! I sort of equate the chop to sky diving - jumping out of a perfectly good aircraft, cutting a perfectly good panel? Same in my books!!! But, I've done skydiving so that only leaves me one option!!! LOL

last photo - put the sub frame back on just to hold the rear lights till I get the new assemblies tomorrow ... held on with some wire!! Damn I'm professional!!! lmfao

Will do boss - next weekend is the moment of truth - bit excited about getting some proper rear lights up top in the rear quarter panel also ... always moan about the fact the brake light was just a blank etc, so nice little bonus of doing this job ... as there'll be none down low once this gets fully underway!!
