More steps forward! The driver's flare didn't settle after I had reset the clip with the rear panel square(-ish) to the ground so I decided it needed to be moved. Nobody seemed to have any suggestions here either.

The car when I woke up this morning:



By 10am the clip was cut out. This took a little courage.





Before 1130 it was screwed in place.




Spent the rest of the afternoon generating pink snow and fiberglass dust.
Getting closer:



And the final product for the day:





The funny thing is how quickly this one went- from pulling it off the car to resetting it and filling. I was clean and having dinner with Bethany by 7p or so. Third time's the charm I guess.




Next steps are back to the finalizing the body gaps and getting all the rest of the fiberglass where it belongs. It was an incredibly productive day and my skills with the glass are improving exponentially with each endeavor. I might even roll it outside for pics in the sunshine tomorrow!
