The left side was on purpose... I screwed up the right side. I was soooooooooo close to being fully done welding the right side completely I let one of my tack beads get too long... and yup... metal bubble. Damn it. It seemed like it would be difficult to work back flat so I chose to slice it to relieve the bubble stress. Worked out well again, the panel is back to flat... but I really need to stop making more work for myself...

I also need to find a place that will let me cut a fuel filler door off an 88-98 Silverado/twins, etc. I don't think the u pull places let you cut stuff.
