I find myself going back to fix stuff I did the 1st time around. I had a "just get it done by what ever means necessary" mentality then. One of those things was hiding the louvers on to give the truck a smooth appearance. I really had no tools, no knowledge on what or how to do it so I took a hammer and beat them down, then filled it in with bondo. (DON'T JUDGE ME!! LOL!) I bought a new set of cowls to do it right, or to the best of my ability this time. Gonna cut out out the louvers and weld in a patch.
