That patch panel looks good. I know what you mean about trim a little, check it, trim , check it. It takes me so long to this kind of stuff. I know you will get it. Take your time and it will turn out perfect.
Thanks guys!!
Well here is how it turned out...

#1 after my initial pass on all my spot welding, I had to cut a half dozen of them on the back side on the long verticle seam because I was not paying attention and it mis-aligned on me.

#2 this is how it sits now, ready for a light skim of filler, and paint. I also bonked myself because it wasnt until I took this pic that I even thought about the body lines aligning. Guess it is better to be lucky than smart, because I was HUGELY relieved to see they lined up as well as they did !

#3 this is my proud pic, this part looks so near seamless that I could lie and tell someone I know what I am doing ..... yah riiiiiiiight !!!

#4 while I was running my spot welds on the patch panel, I was scooting over to the d-side and installing my fuel fill patch as well.

#5 looks good to me !!
