Thanks for the offer of the taillights, but I am not in your neighborhood... all the way down here near the MX border. I have wheel well skirts and i considered connecting them to declid assembly. Not practical. I like poly metal a lot in theory, but I have never worked with it. There ought to be a way to smooth jagged edges, no?

Trying to picture this. Are you suggesting it would not lay flat on the decklid? The lid has some mild compound curves.
