As far as "full beads" I meant tacking until it was a permanent panel. :rolleyes:

That looks much better :waytogo: You'll know for sure once you have primer on.

ahh i see. alot of people think that full beads are fine... sorry for assuming you were one of those people and thanks!
I didn't see the error until you mentioned it but now I do. Looks even better now...
haha yeah, I cant believe i didnt catch it sooner. :doah:Thanks.
 
i liked it before but knowing you did it wrong does make it worse. i mean i'm with you on this one. i can't stand to mess something up and try and cover it. rather just fix the damned thing right and no worries. looking good brother. you should move here and help me with mine ;) :D. i just don't have the ambition to build my stepside yet. constantly working on my Blazer :doah:
 
Looks good---ive tried a couple patch panels on mine and it is not easy.

now you have to make the other side identical---
