Now, I know I'm not the best welder in the world, but I'm pretty happy with it so far even though I've still got lots of work ahead of me...

OH, what I ended up doing was making the curve in the horizontal pieces ( fairly easy as all I had to do was make a curved mark, bend one side up, then bend the other side down about .3 inches away ) then slotting the horizontals to bend the vertical piece...then welded up all of the slots, kind of a pain, but turned out ok.

I do see the trunk gutters on AMD's site, but I'd still need the top roll over edge of the quarter panel...and I'm not buying an OEM style replacement just to hack it up...but hey, at least there's more of this stuff available now...

Oh, and thanks a lot...I ordered the trunk gutters...you know what they say, over budget and behind schedule :lol:
Apparently MOPAR stands for Mostly Overpriced Parts And Rarities :D
