Looks like I haven't been on here since September last year! Glad to have your ride back at the shop Brad. Chris' confidence on this is to be respected. There is only 1 right way to do this.
And he dove in head first! Does he really have 306 photos already, WTF hahahahaha

Default Update - nothing left to come off

Well, I guess this is the best way to repair significant rear end collision damage!

If you look at the drivers side rear of the trunk pan and rear cross member, you can see the frankenstien repair from a solid rear end accident. Explains why the tail panel to tailight trim fit was soo poor when I bought the car.

Keeping the trunk lid and passenger inner/outer wheel housings. Everything else is new metal. Interested so see how all the new panels fit together.

Adios,
Brad
