After cleaning up and prepping the shock towers it was time to put in some new metal. This process involved cutting the rough patch, then lots of trimming, finessing, welding, more trimming and finessing... until it was all in place. I welded it in from both sides to make sure it was still strong once I ground the inside welds smooth.

Halfway through repeating this process on the driver's side.

Did you just form plate steel for the repair? What gauge?
